[yanke10]

How bad is more psi for the stock engine? Does anyone have any prior expeirene with chipping a tubro and how did it go

If you plan on keeping your car for 100k miles, don't chip it.

the car will be fine with a chip. i got my old car chipped at around 90k miles and it lasted me for another 40k miles until i traded it in.

good math:clap:

that means that you effectively had a chipped car for 40k miles, not 100k.

I personally dont think it'd be worth it, but you could always get forged internals if you wanted to have it chipped forever.

if you spend thousands on forged internals you might as well throw a big turbo in and make 400+ bhp

do whatever makes you enjoy the car, if stock is too slow for you and you'll toss and turn thinking of more power, then get it and forget it.

i think if your meticulous about the maintainece you should be ok for a really long time. I suspect the turbo would go before the engine, and when it does go then just get a bigger one.
