How much PSI are you running and what did you need to replace? Also, were did you get your kit?
Questions, questions, questions.

I'm at 10 psi on the descendant kit and love it. So much fun. Had it since September

Boosting is totally and completely worth it! However, as someone on here said, make sure your tune is spot on or risk the consequences. 12 psi WELL-TUNED is extremely different, risk-wise, than 12 psi untuned. Also, money will come and go with turbo setups. It may seem like there's no reason for things to randomly break, but, trust me, they will.

Even with 80k miles, all it basically takes is a compression test to indicate the health of the motor and tell you whether or not that motor's solid enough for low amounts of boost.

Happy boosting!
