ok here is a general question.... if tuned properly (for both S/C and Turbo) is it possible that the engine will last almost as long as it was stock? Basically, how long would the engine last if you put a properly tuned FI onto the car. HAHA S.W.A.G.. I like it... It is "possible" but like Jedi said........ my NA only laster 20,064 miles.

Hey junky ,
have a read of this thread - it discusses tuning of the aux ports on a 6 port motor . What is interesting is how you get a smoother powerband and make more power at a lower rpm with only 4 ports . However the aux. ports do make a huge difference after about 6800 rpm .
What it is plainly obvious to me from these experiments is if you want similar hp from a FI 4 port (to a 6 port) you want to keep the redline at about 7000-7500 and work on putting more boost into it than the mt guys are currently doing .
