Well I blew my headgasket. Didn't have any of the coolant oil mixes happening, I was losing a lot of oil and found the culprit. Looks like the engine was overheated. I don't think I did it, but regardless it is going to the machine shop. I picked up the Apexi metal headgasket as well as some Greddy valve springs and Greddy RAS. While going through the engine it was noticed that I have sprung a leak on one of the TB coolant lines causing me to lose coolant which could have contributed to the HG failure. My question is, where can I get some new lines from? Will they have to be special ordered or can I pick some up at the local auto parts store? Any help will be appreciated, Alex.

You could just bypass them but I have heard horror stories of the throttle sticking even in warmer temps, so it's up to you.
