I think that more boost and less timing = less engine efficiency but safer for the engine. But not safer for the turbos. But if you have to pick something that breaks, it would surely be the turbos over the engine
interesting...time will tell how long our stock turbos can handle the big boost.
i dont know but i hope Cobb knows what they are doing and about the boost vs reliability issue.
