it depends on the kit you get (you get what you pay for), how you drive it (the less you rag it the longer it will last), how well you maintain it (oil changes, routine maintenace) and that answers all your questions with pure common sense! haha

jeeze i feel like a broken record... Turbonetics sucks...

can we just make a sticky that says... TURBONETICS SUCKS please?

honestly, I have been running a kit for almost 2 years now with no effect to the motor and I have been running 10psi on the stock internals

im sure he can hold his own with evos and sti's.. its all in your tunner my friend. I personally havent seen his car so i cant say but majority if the turbo tCs ive seen can beat or hold with them.. it depends on if your talking about from a dig or 20 30 mph pull aswell.
