im assuming its a KA-T and if its tuned right yes you can dude these motors arnt that delicate i used to rag on my SR for hours at the track and never had a problem. just make sure you got a good cooling system cause it gets hot here in miami. i mean on the highway its np cause your getting alot of air but on the street where its stop and go it gets real hot. i never ever had a over heating problem with me koyo rad, electric fan. oem thermostat, regular coolant, and fmic even at moroso where i got the worst sun tan of my life

yea its a KA-T im not looking to crank boost up... just a daily with sum fun... i kinda like the fact that its a t4 turbo... i do not dislike lag like most others... either way boost is a downshift away.. =) but im glad to hear the motor will not die after a month of hard driving.. makes me confident..

as i said with the right tune lol but a bad tune can make a fully built engine grenade lol so eitherway you need a good tune. also since your running a big turbo 8psi on that turbo is alot more then 8psi on a t25/t28 so dont run too much boost.

as for my sr im getting Tomei cams, turbo manifold, GT28RS, turbo back exhaust, 750cc injectors, apexi power fc tuned for 20psi i should have around 350whp thats responsive with very little lag and i plan on beating the **** out of it at the track some more

key points are
