i have 176K! i have all the stuff to boost, 1g ported dsm mani, 16g tdo4, front mount,450's all the good stuff, if i tune with a afc, how soon will my car blow up and how unreliable will it be, say 8 pounds, im thinkin not so good. But ill hear your opinions

thanks dudes

 

neverrr ! haha make sure you engine can handle it and is in good condition.

 

how bad is that small turbo going to suck!?

 

i'm going to have to say that a small turbo is better than no turbo

 

i have 171xxx k on my f22, but for future boost i am building my other f22 40-60k on it..i only spent $450..it won't hurt you. look into it. as a matter of fact..your mind will be more at ease if u swap then boost.

Couple things.

To evaluate the condition of your motor, do a compression and leak down check... also bring all maintance work up to date if it is not.

I would consider better management than an afc, read up on the afc hack and you will know why but basically in a nutshell the major concerns are how its skew the maps and has no timing control. If you want more information I can link you to the thread or explain more in detail when I have more time than I do now (at work).

As for boosting a high mileage engine... go for it, if its in good condition, you have quality management, and is tuned properly... you should have a decent increase in power and still maintain alot of reliability. And as a bonus, f series are dirt cheap in case you do run into problems.

 

Mileage is just a number. If the motor has been taken care of then there will be no issues as long as the turbo is done right. My Volvo 945 has 181K on it and I just maxed out the boost on my stock turbo

 

listen to tweakedcd5 also DO NOT use a afc...that be dumb...get a chipped p28 and have sombody tun it using crome...it be a wast to do all that work and then have it go boom boom boom...just my 2 cents

 

stalker...

I know I need to get those online... but first I need a tune from dave.
