They are bullet proof unless you mod them. Then things can and will happen. You have to be very careful. These 3rd gens are sensitive to certain things for sure. One bad injector will destroy a hole... Kinda scary.

Makes me want to sell mine before the 100k engine warranty is gone. I don't think these engines are what they were years ago?, and they really hose you on parts like they're gold or something.

yeah but my mods are very very light. i have a ****** whistler, str8 exhaust and edge juice. i know lots say this but i HONESTLY always drive on setting 1 and i grandma it. i roll into her here and there but not that much and if my egt gets to 1350 i only let it for like 3 seconds.but i hit those temps when she is stock.actually it seems worse when i take the edge out.
