Power results have been impressive. About 300whp on 9.5 PSI. Blast to drive.

Longevity will be contingent upon you 100%. How well you install it, how well you tune, how well you maintain it and how you drive it.

I'd stay NA if you plan on not worrying about issues man. Most of the turbo'ed tc's i have seen have had an issue one way or another, but if its what you really want, do it.

He's kind of correct here. You know, what I said earlier, I meant. You are the determiner of your own destiny in the boost world.
