Default daily driver boosted d15b2 questions

well i read on previous post about keeping a daily driver boosted car is that you should check it everyday and do frequent oil changes and check for oil leaks but i was planning to boost my d15b2 just for the hell of it since it will be experience for me. i plan on running an FMU for management and probably keep it boosted at most 7psi or even lower. but i'm running a stock d15b2 and so i didn't really want to do anything to this car because i plan on getting another car in the near future. so i felt that if i just boosted the d15b2 i could use the custom turbo kit for later if i happen to burn a piston or something so thats why i plan on just bolting on a turbo kit. i know it won't be quick and i'm not relaly planing on do some hardcore racing but just as a regular daily fun driver and to use this as experience for future cars. but anyhow i was wondering how long the engine could last if i did run it daily(drive to school) and what should my limits be such how far should i go with the car, should i take it on the freeway stuff like that for just safety precautions. but thanks in advance for the help

I tuned a kid with a d15B7 with a 42/48 T3 on 10PSI of boost last week, the car moves, and he was running the AFC for a while before I got my hands on the car, this car moved too, for what it was.

If he was using Afc, what did you tune it with?

We replaced the AFC with an ECU chip.

He love it BTW, cleaned up his idle and part-throttle bucking.

What program did you use to burn the chip, Uber, crome. . .

Im thinking of Uber because its cheap as hell and easy to tune for boost for my d15b2
