Default how long have you boosted on a stock block?

i got a really good offer for my type r swap for a 97 gsr swap and a complete max rev kit to put on it.. i consider myself a reserve driver, so i think i could be responsible enought to take it easy on my motor when boosted. i just wanted to hear how long people on here have run on STOCK bottom end

Don't forget that the engine management and tuning will play a large role in the longevity of the motor. With moderate boost and exceptional tuning, you should be able to run the thing for years and never have a problem more than would be expected from a stock motor.

As long as you have good tuning you shouldnt have any problems unless you do soemthing your not suppoed to like miss a gear or over rev. Thats usually how something goes wrong.
