    head gasket search

    Do a compression and block test (tests for exhaust gas in the coolant). You could simple have a pinhole leak (or bad radiator cap) in your cooling system causing it to lose pressure. Loss of pressure causes boiling and then increased pressure causing a vicious cycle. On the gasket sets, I...

    Clutch reccomendations for 600-700 whp

    Honestly the only clutches for that power level are gonna be feramic or a seriously crazy pressure plate... Or of course multiplate though I dunno why you wouldn't want to run one as it will hold more withough unnecessary strain on the thurst bearings or the risk of welding...

    57 trim ok to run on stock setup?

    As it will run the stock wastegate with the stock spring, yes, it will be fine as boost levels will be the same. It might flow slightly more and increase power a bit, but it's not going to hurt anything and fuel cut is always there to stop engine damage.

    1j or 2j swap

    If you budget is low, stay 7M... $2400 isn't going to get you a swap, period. Why the time constraint?

    Raced an Evo 9

    lol, I'd make a fool of myself and run like a 16.... I've only raced evos from a dig twice, one was an older guy that said he didn't want to kill his clutch, and the other one was a punk kid that bogged it. Currently I'd probably lose to one from a roll since I'm at stock boost again...

    Raced an Evo 9

    Most evo's aren't even that fast from a dig because they're either punk kids that don't know how to drive, or it's people that know better and know what it will do to the clutch and drivetrain... On the highway, they're cake...

    Worth it to get insurance to cover my rebuild costs?

    Make sure to make photocopies and scan in all reciepts as well (this goes for anything important). Most receipts are printed on thermal paper now which is not stable for long periods of time.

    Exhaust manifold gasket

    Up to you, but the design is a sandwich of metal and packing material, packing material eventually gets blown out.
