Didn't think any of it specifically referred to you. You've already said you plan to replace it when it blows, I just pointed out you probably wont get near the 20-40k you said you expect at that power level if you are in the boost often. This isn't really an argument in my opinion more casual debate, but I guess I hurt your feelings?
So what your saying is F.I's kit would be better if it were a bit worse? I agree you are cutting down the longevity of the motor at those power levels however, no one really knows how long the motor will last.


Sorry trips I had to post this
