I for one would be willing to pay a premium for S/C with warranty...
IMHO its easy to push the most amount of power for the dollar (Turbo)....but being stuck on the side of the road a year later with a blown motor isn't fun!
Based on my previous experience modding my 03 WRX with a bigger turbo, injectors, catless exhaust, tune (TurboXS stage4) which had lots of power ...but often inconsistent power...looking back a little too unpredictable for a daily driver.
But I learned as I went...as many do. But running that bigger turbo (and pushing the boost) and the inconsistency of power may (or may not have) caused boost spikes combined with a faulty boost gauge resulted in a blown connecting rod that put me back $4,000 (and back to stock) in a jiffy. Temperature changes, bad gas, big hills most likely all factored in at some point.
Forgive me for stating the obvious but for those new to modding something to consider.
