I had a 4G63 turbo engine rebuilt for my Talon several years ago now (more like 5, but its depressing to know the time length) and I finally have a new Tsi to drop it in.
It never made it past roughly 30 miles on the initial break in period. I'm worried about putting it in and just finishing the break in. My first thought was to take it to a shop and have them refresh it if you will. I want to replace the head on it because it has an exhaust stud holder that has broken off, its on the very corner so I don't know if it could be redone. I have a spare head I was going to take to a machine shop to swap all the new parts. Should I just have them pull the bottom end apart and redo it?
Obviously it will take more time and money; so would this be my best option?
Thanks in advance
