I would recommend going to RRE and having Tony take a look at the car, before you damage something else... it might be from a simple blowned head gasket, and hopefully its just that.

ok then maybe i skipped the basic and went higher than that.
but i now know that the thing is called coolant, thanks.
I would have certainly know what are you talking about if you speak in my language... I just dont like being treated like a *****... just for "coolant" thing..
come on man, so you think you're pretty good, have some respect for people less knowledgable than you.. dont just go around embarrassing people..
I talk to Robert from RRE, and he's really really nice to me. and i'm quite sure that he's much more knowledgable compared to you?
anyway thanks for the hope that the blown headgasket is the only problem.

Man...I just don't understand this. I've been a part of a few different enthusiast groups and forums with the cars I've owned. But being fairly new on here, it seems to me that there is a bit more hate here than the others I remember.
I do understand when someone doesn't search or make an effort to read the FAQs. But not everyone with an Evo is a mechanic, or used to working on cars...or in this case speaks the same primary language. Why is there a need to belittle people? Everyone on this forum is still learning...but many of us would have never made it this far with cars if we were treated this way in the beginning...
fr34k, sorry about the flames. Sounds most like a head gasket to me as well :< Best of luck in getting it sorted out...

The GT30 has a lot of end shaft play b/c its a ball bearing turbo
There is NO seal on the water passage in that turbo what so ever
You have either a cracked head or a blown head gasket. (Could be a cracked block)
When you run a GT30 on 91 octane cali **** gas these things can happen
Did you have head studs?

Stock head studs are STRECH bolts and will continue to strech if you run a lot of power through them
Hence the common suggestion to upgrade to ARP head studs

Thanks Al, and everyone else who has been helpful. Yes, I have stock headstuds.
This thing happen just when I was looking where to buy headstuds from.. this really sucks... I'm gonna bring my car to RRE asap, and hopefully just a headgasket problem... pray guys...
thanks everyone
