And then of course the boosted examples. But I know there are plenty of people that drive these cars hard and are having them hold up fine. So, I had actually speculated before that maybe they do need to get driven hard on a regular basis. Why that would be, I have no idea.
Though, I really don't think that the FA20 has any of the buildup that one would expect on a car with only direct injection. I don't think that matter is a concern based off of the research that I've done so far on these engines. Maybe someone can correct me.

Agreed, that or that people just say they dont drive it hard to make themselves feel better lmao. Im going to start occasionally getting those RPMS around 5-6, but driving it up to 7 just feels ignorant to me.
