Hi all sifu,

I just did a engine transplant from v6 to evo3. I did buy new timing belt set & water pump to my mechanic to change. But the day i going to pick up my car we do test drive and noted boost was only go up to 0.5 seem like can't get higher although in rpm 7K.

Upon checking, we found wastegate diaphgram leaking, then fine coz i willing to change a brand new one. But lastly when almost going home from workshop my car can't start anymore.
And my mechanic angkat head by next morning and noted 8 of the valve was bent!! then i told him are you install the timing belt correctly?? he said he did else car can't move and he claimed that the valve bent is because of the leaking wastegate....and this sound weird for me as wastegate only device which release the hot air. Any idea??

Car still in workshop but am quite worries as i spent a lot into my car already...and lot of other mistake he did to my other member car(which exchange engine with me)which i don't want to mention at time being.

ANy idea why my valve suddenly bent?? coz previously it's in good condition which was using by my fren before transplant to my car.
 
a faulty wastegate resulting several valves bent? hahaha, how the heck is dat even possible? iam pretty sure it happened during the timing belt installation ler, marking tak betul tu. u either need new valves or, new engine head with good internals
 
ya bro, did asked few sifu..all of them claimed tht timing belt install not ngam..really sad tht met this foreman..thank for ur opinion bro..

his marking might be correct but scare the tension of the belt was not correct thus makes the belt jump...

at the very least, pistons will scratch. havent met with cracked pistons caused by the same fault, it is possible ke? pistons are robust against high impact imo

is it harmfull or not depends on how severe it was...


if it just minor dent on the piston face then no worries....
