how many miles?
 
I was curious if anyone has put alot of miles on there car AFTER the turbo set up? alot of posts i see are "ive been boosted for like 800 miles". does anyone have one thats been through like 15k miles? I tend to put a ton of miles on my car, cuz i love driving it. I wouldnt boost mine crazy, just so i can keep it reliable. anyone?

I boosted a B7 for several thousand miles on an AFC and 450's. It still ran when I pulled it. Actually, to this day it's probably still running. I sold it to a guy on ALTernativeHonda.(Yes I told him what was wrong with it) :P
