Default Car back down

So a friend ask to use the turbo car to drive his daughter to her Prom in, he is a great friend and helped build the car so I have no issue with him driving the car. Get a call Sunday saying the car acted down on power and ran really hot after he got gas on the way back.

Last night turned the key on and the waterpump wasn't spinning, replaced the relay,refilled coolant, topped oil off and when the car started it dumped a gallon of water out of each tail pipe , but the waterpump works:lol3:

Good thing I was building a new engine anyway, just may go with unported SVO heads if I want to make MW2010 with the car.
