<p>[QUOTE="Superhauler, post: 10426775, member: 38460"]More than likely when it was a twin turbo the vva's bleeded off the excess cylinder pressure even though it showed better than 40psi on the gauge. Because of the high comp pistons. Now when it was singled the vva's were removed or deleted so they couldn't "bleed off" the excess cylinder pressure. Which causes higher cylinder pressure with the single and high comp pistons. Its not "if" the headgasket will fail. Its "when" it will fail. Either cut the bowel of the pistons or install the low comp pistons.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
