hey, probably this thread has been talked about before but i wasnt able to find any info. i would realy appreciate it for any info that you guys have regarding in rebuilding my engine since it already has 100k miles and wanting to add a turbo. thank you.

 

I just sold my tc1 and upgraded to a tc2 because my 100k miles made me to nervous to boost it aswell plan on boosting the new one at 5k

 

Just realize that adding boost puts more wear on the engine. I boosted at like 85k and am at around 92k now. If your engine is healthy, then it should work, but the unanswerable question is for how long. But that goes for any engine: new or old. Wouldn't be a bad idea to have a spare block handy. Just my $0.02

 

Make sure the engine's compression is decent. Have a compression test performed on the engine and report the findings. If it's OK, then you will be OK to boost on the engine.

Understand, reliability is 200% in your hands. It is contingent upon your maintenance, your quality of the tune on the FIC, the quality of the fuel you put in it, the quality and frequency of your oil and it's changes etc. All of these factors are in your control. Treat her well and you will be fine. We have customers whom have been boosted for 100K miles.

 

Thanks for the info ppl. Ama go ahead and get the engine check to see if it can hold. Thanks for the great.Info.
