Hi there, my first post, i'm Roman, live in Moscow, Russia, driving GT86 Aero w/stick.

Car is much more fun than my ex - STI'05. Straight line performance of course not so satisfying.
Stock sti' acceleration was totally enough for me, so here's the question.

Will the engine survive if i install 250hp turbokit? Oil cooler and front brakes as well of course, but will engine survive? Heard a lot of stories about blown stock engines, I bought it with 30k miles on the odometer (now it's 32k) and the engine was already rebuilt, so not i'm sitting on a powder barrel.

How painful is it for engine to install bolton turbokit (like Greddy) with this little overpower? Will it run at least 30k miles more?
