My buddy boosted his D15 with 180k on it and it runs fine. If compression checks out, and it doesnt smoke, go for it.

I've had a couple of very high mileage motors boosted. They love it If compression checks out decent then boost away.

My car(D16Y8) has 196000km and its turbo'd.

Do a compression test and be sure to the get a good tune when you install your turbo.......and you should have no worries.

mine has like 205k on it, been boosted for somewhere between 6 and 7k miles. compression is absolutely perfect. i do burn a lil oil, but it did it worse before i put the turbo on
