#109727, "Would you boost it?"




          

It has been awhile since I have been on here. I have been considering piecing together a turbo kit for my car and wanted some feedback on the situation.

My car is close to logging 240k miles on it. I rebuilt the motor a year ago. (Actually, more like freshened it up.) I replaced all the bearings, rings, but reused the original rods and pistons and used brand new rod and main bolts. The head I had cleaned and resurfaced, and had a valve job done. Used an MLS head gasket and new head bolts along with new timing belt and pulleys and even switched to a mechanical tensioner.

So my question is, would you boost it? Or would you think the mileage on the block, rods and pistons would create a weak point given they don't seem to be too strong to begin with?
