So, I took the car out on test drive to see how it would run and to get my exhaust done. I know I wasnt supposed to hit boost, so I tried to keep it down. Well after shifting is my bov suppose to go off? Even if I dont hit boost? So after this, hoping I didnt hit boost, because my boost gauge didnt even go into boost. So am I okay? Well any way my car started smoking so I checked under the car and I sprung a leak with the coolant lines. I'll have to redo the lines tomorrow, but Im just a little worried I messed it up.

I was actually reseacrhing on the 3s rods. Well on ebay they are selling Eagle 3s rods for about $330 with the arp rod bolts too. Should I go that route? Or should I be cautious with that? Let me know, because I don't want to pull the trigger too early and screw myself.
