Yeah, people sometimes forget that these engines are at least 10 years old - any engine is pretty worn at that stage, let alone one that produces 200bhp/litre.

Ding Ding Ding!!

I was podering some tuning options on my wifes car. Not planning them just wondering. I looked at the odomter...hmmm.. 50K miles.. almost too many. Wait! Its a Piston car and I am thinking 50K miles are too many??

People buy RX-7's every day with 100K + miles on them and start modding the hell out of them. Then they pop and they are pissed???

ANY Engine with high milage has no business being highly modded especially forced induction.

Agree?

That makes sense to me. And actually with a piston motor there are so many more variables due to more parts being stressed.
