Spun a rod bearing at 118K miles.
What caused that? Was it due to the high millage. My turbo will probably go on with about 93,000 miles, im a little worried about the higb miles on it.

Here's my view ...

With a turbo ... spend some money on the bottom end. Get pistons and rods and new bearings etc ... That with a properly tuned car (hondata) will last. Just don't be dumb and floor the car for like 2 minutes.
