What do you mean you blew your engine? A head gasket, piston, rod...?

Also, what was your original engine? Do you want the turbo 2.3?

i had the 2.3l in it wasnt turbo but i figure if i can why not spend the money on the turbo 2.3l instead of just another 2.3!! im not 100% sure what happen all i can see right now is that the block is cracked .. im gussing i threw a rod but im not 100% sure yet!
