Keep the boost down, and do a good job with the install and tuning and you will be fine, I drive my car almost 100miles per day, 2.5 years boosted and absolutely perfect reliability. Props to me I guess!

If I could suck my own dick, I wouldn't be typing this right now. :lol:

Yeah, I know, sometimes I can be a little bit selfish, but honestly I can't give any one else props on my car because I did everything on it. The only exception is my tig-welder Kurt - I gotta give him props for the tigs.

I won't dyno the car without being able to tune (need Hondata) it's too dangerous.
