Well, would a .020 overbore do much for the displacement at all other than get rid of some scoring and hot spots? I'd deffinetly find the money for the overbore if they hot tanked the motor for free. I have OCD so dirty motors make me twitch.

I think you can borrow a hone from autozone.
Yeah. It's probably the effect of having three different turbos on the car over a year long period with fuck up after fuck up, the car being in an accident, and then a quick burst of detonation.

I can't afford diagnostics and measurments, balancing, all the bells and whistles.
