[QUOTE="blur_civic, post: 850233, member: 5657"] Dont mind that i try to set things straight here k guys? can't stand bad information.. you CAN'T say for sure how short your engine life will be.. there are too many things to consider... First of all.. 0.5? 0.8? It is not about the bar although it does play a role.. it is the size of the turbocharger too.. 0.5 on a big turbocharger is different on 0.5 on a smaller one.. so i can actually boost 0.8 on a smaller turbo and still not strain the engine as much as 0.5 on a big turbo... Second.. just because you boost high does not mean your engine will have a shorter span.. it is all in the tuning.. with bad tuning anyone can fry a piston on a 0.2bar boost on a peanut turbine.. just lean the fuel off.. and there you have it.. but with good tuning.. an engine can run much longer than any "built tough" cars.. nyee hee hee.. (Were you guys thinking Ford or Proton when i mentioned "built tough"? :p anyway.. it's just a pun/expression... no offense intended) Third.. 2 guys might have the exact same setup.. but one might get his engine blown off first and another guys engine might last for a lifetime.. why? it's the way they drive.. you don't expect a guy who drives like his ass is on fire all the time to have a good healthy engine.. but then again.. tuning comes in to play.. Another thing.. with the same theory i mentioned above.. you can't say how much horsepower on the amount of boost cause you have to take into account the turbocharger too.. :) [/QUOTE]
