Not that many times apparently.
They failed on me after the 1st use.
Stick with stock.

stock is good...
just make sure you have a good quality torque wrench
have a good understanding on how to use them...
so there... now enjoy torquing around!

May I suggest pulling the cams and retorquing the head bolts soon after boosting a few runs?
If the head bolts are still in spec fine, if not and they need to be retorqued, even better!
