I'm with Blue on this one.

I really don't think these motors will last long at all on 500 rwhp. I hope to be proven wrong though.

You do have to remember though this is on only about 10-12 intercooled psi. I have seen 10+ pounds of boost on a motor upwards of 10.5:1 compression and it held up excellently. It really all comes down to how good of a tune you have on it. No engine pushed hard enough even stock will last a life time, but yes this will sacrifice the longevity of the motor but I think it will be fine. Like I said it all depends on the tune.

Longevity is greatly related to how the car is driven. For example, an engine boosted and tuned to 1000 WHp will last a long time if it is never driven at max power. Any car (including stock ones) that are beaten will not last as long. We're already hearing of problems with a stock GTR on launch control if it is driven hard.

Even with my low boost controller setting of 5-6 psi on my VQ35HR, hooking it up is very difficult, even with 285 tires. Maybe this is a blessing to help the drive train survive? Even though I'm tuned to 9-10 psi, I hardly ever go there.

So far so good!
