Blew The F20b!
 
so i get the car tuned at proven power by alpha, and everything was great. i was very satasfied by the way and highly recomend their services, but i started loosing water real bad but none of it was coming out. so i figure it was the head gasket or i actually cracked a sleeve. today i pulled the head off and luckily the head gasket was damaged and the sleves looked fine. the number 3 cylinder was full of water and there was no water in the oil pan.http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j1...5/DSC05334.jpg
im ordering all of the parts tomorrow, and when i put it all back together it wil be boosted:D i will keep doing updates and make a build thread.
