    ...most interested in is having them install some forged rods (+head gasket and studs) and take that worry off the table so I can finally swap the turbo. It's not that I can't, but I don't have the tools or the time. After all, this IS still my daily driver, so I need it back up and running...

    I couldn't have said it better. Most of the blown Si head gaskets have been in exactly the scenarios you described.

    Unless your running ethanol, big turbo, or custom tuned, you don't really have to worry about the head lifting. But upgrading would be great peace of mind, especially if you are planning on being tuned and owning the car for many years.

    Thank you great response! Also, as far as the Injen. Sometimes I get a blip of on STFT of 20% immediately following deceleration, on WOT mostly blips at 10 or 11 saw 13 one time. Overall no real issues with it I've kept an eye on it because I know the troubles with them. I would also like to...
