Ughhhhhhhhhhhh, I really really, REALLLLLYYYYYY hate arguing with you, because I take the time and effort to research my posts, try to make it as straight forward as possible, and then you always reply in like 10 seconds with the most off-the-wall stuff that I don't know what to say. When I get too annoyed to post you take it as your victory.
What annoys me too is that I know there are many people, many well known people, here that bashed the OP in how he said it, and are reading this thread, but who agree that boost could use beefier rods, and who know you are spewing ridiculous nonsensical crap, but who won't call you out on it because you are on "their" side. I hope one of them comes and tries to convince you of things, because you never listen to me.
If no one does, I guess I will eventually, but I feel like I will be repeating myself. please re-read this post:

I re-read this thread from the beginning, and it is actually starting to really piss me off. I have a theory why this thread went the way it did, and why it made some people super salty, and why some people just want it to disappear, but I don't want to say it because I don't want to piss people off or call people out.

I agree with what this person said. What Justin was trying to say is beefier rods would have helped a lot. I'm new to this and learning on the side about material properties but I'm always on the forums reading about people going F/I and how some people are having a hard time.
Our shop mechanic at work has a 328 (Twin turbo) currently and has been boosting up the turbo compression on his engine for quite a while. He feels very safe doing it on stock. That engine was designed to be F/I.
What I'm trying to say is, whoever is working on pushing the boundaries CSG_Mike, etc. Props to you guys. In terms of learning, this forums is awesome. But as my only car, I don't i'll be able to go F/I on this car. Critical info provided by Justin is useful.
Also, I was reading someone else's thread and he dissected the FA20 and found the build quality sub-par. Lots of sharp edges, etc. Not sure if that ties into this.
