7689, is it worth it? #2
Posted by dohc96gs, Nov-19-01 10:36 AM
I have 62k on my car right now. I have a 96 gs auto. I want to run a hahn stage two through the car. Is this smart? Or should i just stick with looks? Is there anything I can do to help with the age of the motor, possibly make it "newer" without spending up the ass in cash? The car is in great shape for the 8k. Any idea on how long the engine might last w/ me heavy foot?

only 62k?!?! what are you worrying about. turbo the bitch and just keep an eye on it and make sure it's properly tuned and you shouldn't have any problems. oh yeah, and get a compression test done too!

Don't worry about it. Go ahead and buy the turbo kit.
Keep the boost low and monitor your gauges and you won't have any problems. If/when it finally does go, then worry about rebuilding it.
