The Vband hotside we are planning for. Our standard manifold kit uses a Vband discharge on the turbine housing now.
The TurboXS boost controller is not electronic, it is simply two manual controllers with a selonoid between so you can switch from high boost to low boost with a flip of a toggle switch. They are pretty darn good, we always stock them. I have one on my RS and Jarrod is putting one on his EVO too.
As far as how long will an engine last like this. That depends on a lot of things. I never expect to see an engine again once I build it and it is gone from our shop. Well, if it is a drag car with a GT42 on it and 40+++ psi I know sooner or later it is coming back for something. A build like these though will depend on how you drive it and how often you use it to it's full potential. If you intend to leave the boost at 40 psi and always run C16 and every single day you get in the car you have to run it through 4 gears and hit 9,000+ rpm on each shift, well it is going to simply wear out and when it does it will need rebuild. How long will that process take? I can't honestly answer that. We have a LOT of engines out there and they have been out there for a LONG time. Until the last year though we were not pumping cars out with 40 psi for street use. So far, I can honestly say nothing that has had a turbo smaller than a GT42R on it has come back to us broken. Atleast not that I can think of. It is quite amazing actually.
My car, everytime I get in it and hammer it, which is every time I get in it
I have to wonder to myself how in the hell an engine that small can do that over and over and over again and still keep running. It is incredible.
After 18 years of doing nothing but these engines I still am shocked at what they can do.

and whoever mentioned about cops popping the Evo's hood...ditto...the cop will probably get a stroke from fantasizing how many tickets he can hand out to the owner of this Evo
