... or maybe when teams of real engineers studied the issue they came to the conclusion that the factory turbos are not rated for that kind of impeller RPM. Having a turbo break apart at wide open throttle and throw shrapnel in to the engine is not a good thing. That is if you're the one paying to repair the damage.
