I think what someone mentioned on a more specialized cam and a good head would do more then you could imagine on that setup. Also I think it would help with not seeing 30 psi of boost and making the same power on lower boost

Its a shame about whatever cause the problem. Hope you can figure it all out and get it ready for next year

Ahh, so that damage is to the gasket and not the block?

I'm still impressed you put that much boost from a 94mm turbo to it
