thinking of going turbo..got all the stuff i need in the garage.

but wanted to know how would my 82k engine will hold up for 8-10psi

please share your milage if possible.

 

If it's in good condition it'll be fine. Mileage ain't the be all and end all of engine health.

 

JUST DO IT!

 

im at a lil over 100k miles and been boosted for a while, runs strong =)

 

I've got over 76K with 3K of turbo, i know it's not much but I expect the motor to go well over one hundred, and that will take me at least 10 years to do...

 

73K here

 

125k and 22psi on mix gas at 507.1 whp and on normal gas 473whp
at 15 psi

 

i've had over 30k miles on my block making 384whp... now im making over 400whp

 

What about track use when around 6-9psi on stock engine?

Or driving 150MPH on the highway for about 5-15 minutes? ( German Autobahn! )

Is it posible or does it hurt the engine?

I'm planning on getting the greddy kit but i dont know i ill be able to track the car with it or make the long german autobahn trips

Sorry for the n00b question..

 

Its all in the tune



A stock s2k with a bad tune will blow up as well as turboed s2k with a terriable tune. Thats what people have to understand...its the tune that 9/10 breaks shit.
