theres really no set limit on how long your motor will last....it all depends on your tuning

if you get good tuning and are not constantly in boost your motor should last quite a while

He's just wanting to see other people's opinions; it's well known that there's many factors involved in the longevity of a hi-po motor.

Also, please state how much it was usually driven and how hard

Mine has lasted 2 years so far. JDM H22(10.6:1 comp) running 10 psi, tooned with hondata 2b, and running 550cc injectors on pump gas. Daily driven 100+ miles per day, mostly freeway so it sees 10 psi everyday. Still running strong.

i have an h23 that i have been boosting at 7 psi for about 3 months/5000 miles now. i am running stock internals. i have had zero problems so far (knock on wood) that is driven about 50 miles a day roughly and driven fairly hard untuned with the afc hack i agree that if you have it tuned well and dont drive like a complete maniac than it will last a good while. yeah i know i just contradicted myself with the whole tuning thing........
