4 hours in. Intake manifold looks nasty. Decided I'm going to make my own EGR block off plates, that should save a couple hundred. Also had been looking at a PCV reroute, going to skip that and leave the factory PCV in place. There's a thin film of oil in the boost pipes but it's not bad at all for 180k miles.
