I had a turbo Impreza and a 1.8 turbo Audi S3 with 270BHP tuned. The Audi engine was blown to pieces.

I think Japanese car manufacturers know more about turbos than german manufacturers. Turbos do worry me a BIG bit because of what happened with my Audi.

I think turbo engines are not made for trackday and severe use, only EVOs and Stis. IMHO.
