135k Miles on Engine. 110k boosted miles; still going strong
I think the longevity test was passed. I drive 100 miles a day to and from work with it. lol. I'm 284whp (mustang) which is about 370 crank hp or 310-320whp on a dynojet. I think at this power level, it will last as long as stock. To note, I have been using almost nothing but e85 the last 3 years.
So I deem 300-350whp the safe DD limit.
I full throttle redline it multiple times everyday. I'd say I probably have maybe 5-10k miles of full throttle events.
Which brings me to my next point; I the the FA20 is unique that is can handle double its power on stock internals reliably. I just got an evo x and to run 400whp, you need aftermarket cams. FA20 seem to be able to run 400whp with little issues if you don't have a bad engine.
