**Super mega internet bitch slap**
This is just a dumb question, I tried to let it go, but after talking to a couple people on here, I decided I would do the honors of telling you what a dumb ass question this is.
If you really want to know, do some searching and you can see what people say about their cars blowing up.

thats kinda harsh dude.
Motors blow up differently, some last forever (lots and lots of miles) others, bomb after a couple thousand miles, some blow instantly, it depends on the hand you were dealt :P

^^^^ so in other words, soldier, it was a dumb question, ok, got it, thanks.
By the way, yes it was harsh, but this is not the first time we have been asked...um... "less than smart", questions from this user. That is why I figured the subtle hints were not working, so it was time to get more direct.

I'm glad someone said something. It's not really my board so I don't want to be a dick but...Damn

Thank you avenger for seeing my side of it. I try to help out whenever I can, and I never make fun of, or talk shit to someone that has a useful question. I just can not stand some of the questions that people post about on this board. (not just this user) But lots of people post dumb questions that just waste peoples time. This board is here to help people. Who is possibly going to be helped by knowing how long someone else's engine lasted? Everyone's is different, like soldier said. It is just a dumb question. And this is not the first time this user has posted dumb questions, I could do a search and find hundreds of dumb, already answered questions. But I am not, I am never going to read another post from this user. I do not want to seem like the bad guy here, I am really a cool guy that likes to help, but I cannot take these types of questions anymore.
Thank you, drive through.
Edit: Just for reference, here is another post from this user....

This is a dumb question and it isn't. This has been ask many times before. Many people said "Oh I have been boosting for months, years, thousands of miles", so on. I read all of those post. Then I put my kit on and boosted at a safe level of 5-6psi. How long did my motor last? One day. Yep. So everyone is going to have a different answer. You are running a risk by boosting your 420a. Just be ready to rebuild it because you are going to blow it up.

this is another one of those things you could just research and find several answers on. I do remember a poll on engines blowing. everyones is different, all you can do is make sure you take care of everything. also please try and do a little searching before posting the first thing that comes to your head, you might find the answer without taking up server space.

Ok he gets the point, lay off. If we really went through and got rid of dumb posts we would only have a few worth reading everyday.
