I know of a Ferrari that died way before that...you know the one. http://ilovebacon.bla-bla.com/vehicles/082900.shtml

 

 

It was just a water hose or radiator line I believe. Though hell you can blow anything up! Just gotta push it hard enough.

Guys this car is not a Turbine engine where it runs best at 100% throttle.

Though I know a guy that worked at a plant where he pushes turbine engines to the point where they break and finds out why. He figured out that they could fit a small turbine engine in a Porsche!!!! Sucker could run at 125 mph 24-7!(as long as you supplied it gas) That was the down side it would get like 5 mpg! And it would just dump fuel at stop lights. Hell anything can be done!

Nothing like saying I got a Turbine under the hood. Reply: "a turbo?" No a TURBINE!

 

remember too that the test car was probabbly the same car used in all the mags...

I am sure it was driven VERY hard from 0 miles.

 

With a little "self-restraint" from hitting 9,000 rpm all the time and the Mobil 1 synthetic, hopefully my engine will last more than that

 

Vtec at least once every time I take it out? Try Vtec it at least once after every time I have to stop at an intersection. I dread being below 6000 RPM. Maybe I should by an extended warrenty.
