    different oil lines?

    LOL ummm the "Oil cooled" thing is a bit of a misnomer the cooling is a by product of the lubrication. Either way it's bad to shutem down hot mmm-kay <Mr Garrison voice> ;)

    different oil lines?

    Yep if you shut it down right away after a hard pull it will boil the oil the Oil that in there then turn it to carbon and this is the "Coke" I'm talking about. It's a bad thing as it's very hard and will trash the turbo and is the reason turbo timers were invented (not to mention think of...

    Vid of my engine running / also whats the sound?

    Jimi: Just about anything EXCEPT King aluminium bearings...... If everything is right with the lubrication system the bearings should only ever touch the crank on a cold start so they're not as hyper critical as people believe.

    Anything is "possible" just depends on what they want to be paid for doing it. A quality job won't be cheap. I'd look at alignment and bushings as the cause first as the connectors aren't that critical a part on our cars.
