It isn't just your engine, it's also your turbocharger that your risking. And it could mean your engine.

PVC pipe fails, turbo over-revs, blows seals, leaks mucho oil. Oil enters engine, oil doesn't compress too well. And that's if the oil level doesn't go so low that your bearings go right round right round first.

And surely that's cheaper than a few feet of aluminum tubing.
