Too many variables for potential failure and the heat generated is very difficult to keep under control. I gave up on my Evo for a BRZ due to the heat issues.
The Vortech kit is only good for 250rwhp which would make all the difference for the 86 on a track. At only 7-8psi, its a good compromise for longevity, heat and power and would be my choice for a track car.
