Not sure who was implying this. Any mechanical part that gets more stress will break sooner than it would under less stressful conditions. Kind of obvious and useless to point out. What we want to know are things like what how the same or similar part(s) performed in the past under certain conditions.

I'm friends with him and live a few miles from him, I haven't seen his car out of commission or heard anything of that nature, he doesn't run 18psi to get these numbers either i don't believe... more like 16 I think? I see them driving this car around all the time, it has like 25k miles on it :P

I think that part where he asked what compression ratio they were running made is glaringly obvious he has no idea.

Too much boost plain and simple, plus the wear and tear in the LONG RUN (not 5 weeks of research and development at these levels) |

Really? It is as simple as too much boost? Because "boost" is completely subjective to engine load and RPMs, it is nowhere near as simple as "too much boost".

I never said that was the only reason just said running too much boost can be a direct correlation of blowing the turbo......... |
