head gasket out best salution?

[kellyboy]

Gents,

First it seems to be only a problem in the coolant system, but now my head gasket is completly ruined. My timing belt, water pump etc need to be replaced ass wel. I'm in a bit of a doubt now. I know this will cost me a lot of money, but the last coupple of months i thought about more power so maybe an itb kit is a good option now? Everything is open so the only extra cost will be to purchase an itb kit.

What would you guys do in this situation?

What engine do you have? Its more than incredibly rare for a headgasket to go on a 2.0

Pick up a second hand engine with low miles on it and start from there

i head a healthy fase 1 rs engine. But a broken indicator didn't show me that my motor was on high tempature. so no coolant anymore and i have driven 3 weeks without cooling. This is the result.

I tought about itb's, an megane rs engine so i get more horsepower. Rebuild this enigine but the doubt is big.

It's Phase 1.

Might be best with a new engine and a low boost turbo kit.

yep sorry, here in Holland we say fase in the uk its phase.

That was an idea ass wel. But i'm still not sure what the total cost wil be. I here it monday when i return to my mechanic. i don't know what will give the best result. Itb's/low turbo kit/megane engine etc etc.

Btw lovely phase 1 you have
