sorry to hear that rob,im at work today so feel free to give me a ring.

Shorty the 3s-gte does suffer from HG failure from time to time,seems to be related to running excess boost over a long period of time,but then you always get the ones that just go even on stock boost.

AHa. I do hear lots about HG failures. Are there any dangers to it? Like piston overheat or something like that?
