Default SO update on my "blown turbo/leakdown/50psi on one cylinder

well finally got the head off, turns out i floated a valve, middle intake valve nicked the piston, guess i downshifted too hard as this does not seem to be a common problem on the b5 S4, just my luck as usual lol o well.... wanna play you gotta pay right?

anyone do this on a b5 s4?

oh and no blown turbos i can see, smoke was from the damaged seat/valve/guide as far as i can tell.

guess i might just swap the whole head out rather than risk having a weak seat or stem guide / spring, sigh.

Before you opened the motor, did you confirm the cams and crank were properly aligned?
