If engine failure does happen... I will consider it then.

I currently have approximately $300 in the car.. engine runs good and I don't want to tear it apart without need.

I do plan to keep EGTs in check and tune it properly... if EGTs are at or below what they run in NA form, and injection timing isnt changed, The piston's temperature as well as the valve's temperature shouldnt be effected.

The engine's lifespan will be effected most by tuning and properly sizing the turbocharger.

Yes there is risk and I didn't mean to sound off or what have you.. sorry if I did.

There are many differences between the NA and FI engines from the factory... oil pump, pistons, piston coolers, oil cooler, intake design, IP design, etc..etc.. and yes any increase in power output has the potential to cause damage or decrease life expectancy.

With all that being said... what pump would I need? I know that its been done but I can't find the "how" its been done and with what parts.

Thanks again
-Chris
