Went to Asheville, NC last weekend and met Patrick (blacknite3). Patrick is one AWESOME turbo-bricker. He had a need and so did I... we each had what the other wanted. He needed to make a hole in the driveway and I needed a car for my daughter. (OK so I needed a car for her that should would want to drive - she doesn't like my silver 754TI for some reason and I'd rather she not drive that car anyway - it's MINE!)

After a wee bit of aggravation (and a WHOLE lot of thankfullness that we brought the Escalade) the car is now resting comfortably at my in-law's place and will be undergoing a host of procedures in the near future.
Head gasket
Seals
Oil pump
Water pump
Battery
Tires
Clean-up
Timing belt
Turbo replacement - 15g sitting on the shelf unless I can find a good stocker for cheap... or maybe rebuild this one?
Of course I'll clean the head and piston tops while it's apart. Maybe throw some Somender grooves in there and gasket-match port the intake/exhaust. Pretty much everything that my Silver car got.

I've already taken her to the car wash to clean under the hood. Sprayed a full can of Engine Brite under there and used the high pressure to get some gunk off.
This is showroom so I will provide a pic to appease the TTIWWOP gods:
Much thanks to Patrick and his family for all that they did (or 'put up with' in the case of Patrick's wife and child).
And thanks to my Lovely wife and super kids for being REALLY cool about everything too!
This thread will be updated as progress is made.
