Just curious about the life of my motor. I have a b18c motor w/ b16 head, putting out 330hp and 230tq at the wheels. Boosted at 11psi and driven reasonably.

Well, just for some useless info-- i blew 2 motors w/ pretty much the same set up as you at the track at the end of 4th gear (street tuned w/ vafc)...stay away from the longggg highway pulls and you'll be fine!!
