[Mk2] [Turbo] Head gasket rev2 turbo

Post by AdamNorris »

Hi guys

Have a 93 rev2 turbo, overheats on high boost/motorway speeds. Have flushed the system,changed the rad, thermostat etc.

Seems like it could be head gasket. Anyone recommend a place to get this done? Am in south london and if anyone has had it done what price should I be looking at?

Thanks!

I'd say driftlimits performance if you don't mind going north of the river but I dunno how booked up they are.

Unfortunately I don't know what the prices are like because I've always had rev3 cars with the metal hg sorry!

Thanks for the reply though! But yeah I've used those guys in the past and have already spoken to them but unfortunately they are booked up for a while, il see if anyone else knows of anyone else. Also what are the real likelihood of the block being cracked as I've heard a few bad things...
