[QUOTE="LoudCrownVic, post: 2594797, member: 551225"] Def... Plus, if you are running exxtreme boost you can burn the bearings out faster than normal because of the excess heat (especially with a stock exhaust and no intercooler and poor/inadequate oil circulation to the turbo for the increased boost), possibly freezing or badly damaing the turbofan and therefor leaving you with a fancy exhaust blocker. You also run the risk of blowing a headgasket due to the higher than stock boost. Also, I reccommend making sure your oil is religiously changed. The oil cools the turbo and lubricates those bearings AND your engine. You might find a used turbo from a junkyard car with low miles. [/QUOTE]
