How do you know if your getting head-lift ? what are the signs ?

 

ballooning of the typical thin wall aftermarket alloy radiator tanks is the classic indicator

Thanks, wheels are Fikse 11x18 and 12x18

 

Precision Turbo, GT42-7675R CEA Billet wheel, divided 1.28ar.

 

 

how much work is done to the car to fit that kind of width on a mkiv if any at all ? is it just down to camber settings and korrekt off-set ?

I think you need to read the spec sheet and thread or Jamie is going to start getting peed off at repeating the same answers ;)

Just did a sniff test and as suspected the head gasket is shot, will have been because of the head lift at high boost no doubt.

 

No big deal but need to get her into SRD asap, Head skim, 1.2mm HKS head gasket and L19 head bolts.

 

Wont be doing the MLR 30-130 next weekend or the tunnel run this weekend.
