Uncertain Dream

Re:Uncertain Dream
oh no doubt thanks for the advice spiceisler. I been doing reasarch for the past 8 months and i've come to the conclusion of putting the turbo on myself. The only thing im worried about is how long my engine life would last with the turbo. I've got like 73k miles on it and this is the only car i have. Plus I know since the turbo is on my warranty would expired.

Re:Uncertain Dream
How long before your warranty expires? 100,000 miles? If so wait till then. I have no doubt that if you boost around 6.5 - 7 psi with the proper management, you'll be ok.
P.S. Boost is addictive though, you always want more.

with some good fuel management, and a safe amount of boost (under 10 psi daily), you're engine will prolly last almost as long as normal. so what, maybe a year down the road, you may have to tear it down and put some new pistons/rings in and then you can just boost more.

I c. My goals was to run 10 psi daily. However do you suggest i run lower than that since of my high miles? Maybe 8 psi daily? I wanted to reach 200 whp but I guess for saftey reason and realiablity i should take what i can get.
If brought this 99 ex used at 60k. I have extended warranty for 30,000.
And boosting is addictive. I want to have the most power my car can recieved at stock boost.
