can turbocharging hurt engine life?
I am really interested in turbocharging my ITR but was wondering if turbocharging my car can hurt the life of my engine? I was also wondering if a turbocharged engine can last as long as a n/a engine? And are there any precautions I can take to make sure my turbocharged engine lives a long and happy life?

Re: can turbocharging hurt engine life? (foreverjenn)
Yes it can hurt engine life...the key is money (lots of it) and proper tuning...Build the bottom end and DEFINATELY get a stand alone fuel management system...(this is the biggest and foremost recommendations I can make to anyone!)
