          i haven't been on the forums in a while, but found this build really interesting, as i started getting towards the end and the water returns i was praying you didn't do anything lower than the freeze plugs, as sludge builds up it eats the plugs, if you woulda gone lower sludge woulda built in the turbo before rotting the plugs out

          otherwise very very nice build, i keep throwing around the idea of a nice bp

              don't bother with a BP FE3 is the way to go
