Too many miles for more BOOST???
Hello everyone....
I have a 12V with 182K, I currently have for mods
DTT tranny
5" Bully Dog exhaust
#10 plate
3K springs
370's
timing advanced 18 deg.
K&N intake
I am planning on fire ringing the head, ARP head bolts, and a bigger turbo, S300 or HX-50, I am looking for feedback on what you guys think is too many miles for more power.
Thanks alot,
Adam

Check the condition of the cylinder walls when you have it apart. They'll likely look like a million bucks, at which point, give 'er heck! My rig is pushing 300k and has seen many 50psi shots on a stock top end. My 89 had half a million when I pulled it, still running well, save for a head gasket. For what you're planning, I wouldn't lose any sleep. Have an oil analysis done if you want to set your mind at ease.
