hahahahahahahahahahaha


read more my son, read good, long and hard.

any engine will break eventually, if you rape it it will break even quicker, if it is mismanaged you can go ahead and pay for a new one now.

ps, fmu=sucks and you don't need an fmu if you get your computer chipped (with the correct size injectors)

I think your best bet in your further ventures in cars would be to lease a factory vehicle covered with a warranty. Want a turbo? Lease a factory turbo car.

Oh common people.

With proper tuning the car should run fine, even for years, there are factory turbo cars still running now after 10-15 years. Now if you plan on turboing a car, and rape it racing everyday or every single time you accelerate, then yes, it will affect your engine and might not last as long as it would being N/A. But If you are still going to be racing your car N/A, you will also abuse your engine and eventually blow it up. It's all relative. I rather blow my car being turbo and fast, than being N/A and slow.
