Honestly the water pump belt could happen to any motor, boosted or not, blown headgasket happens with many turbo cars, not uncommon.. what kind of headgasket, cometic? Sounds like a bit of bad luck too me. I'm about to rebuild mines actually, my current ka-t setup has been running good on the stock motor the past 3 years but I wanna add more power and have my last days of fun with it before I sell it next year..
