jag, i got a hold of heff earlier and he called me back, someone else is borrowing the torque wrench apparently, I'll talk to him after work today to figure out how long they are borrowing it for but yeah.
also, I'm drawing a blank on your name, I want to say Jay? I need to enter your number into my phone

UPDATE:
No BHG.
Took it to Eddie(master of toyota knowledge) tonight and he determined it is my old ass turbo sucking the coolant in and pumping it out my exhaust because my seals on my turbo are going out.
ps, thanks nate for the head gasket, doesn't look like I'll be needing it, if you want it back, just let me know. also, your car is even more amazing in person man. I'm awaiting the dyno numbers!

Great news! I'm sure your going to send that turbo out to be upgraded RIGHT!kylefoto said:
Keep the headgasket, you never know :aigo:
I am pretty sure that the coolant passage is completely isolated from the seal in the turbo. This question has come up before and the answer has been that the only way to leak coolant internally in the turbo is if the housing is cracked. I'm certainly willing to concede if someone has proof that this is not the case, but that is what I have been told.
Hmm.. well i'm back from work Kyle, so if you do decide to go ahead and re-torque anyways, gimme a call.
Like these guys said, it does sound a bit strange, but what do i know? I havent even had my 7MGTE running yet lol.
A retorque is probably a good idea regardless though! I can probably borrow a torque wrench if needed
