yup from my trubo system. its a stock gasket and it had 170k miles on it with like 2 or 3k of them being under pressure.

this is why it a must to upgrade ur head gasket when doing a 5sfte. I was under the impression that when the warranty company rebuilt my eninge when i first got my car that they had done it from the top. Upon removing the head to replace the head gasket it was obvious that they had rebuilt the engine from the bottom end and left the stock head gasket on it.

yeah ur telling me lol. It sucks. Lots of stuff has to come off and that wiring loom that goes over the plemuth is a reall bugger get over the top of the intake manifold. Not to mention the patience that has to be taken when taking off and putting back the cams gahdflal i get worked up just thinking about it.
