Is it true the more power you run the more problems your going to get?

Depends on how you go about getting the extra power like you can't just bolt a turbo on and run 20psi and expect it to last

you gain power and torque but sacrafice a smooth idle for a rough idle depending on how violent the cam is .theres so many different options or you can get a custom one made to suit your engine.

Everyone will say I'm nuts, but hoping for 350rwkw on avgas, un-opened n/a bottom end at 26psi, or 300rwkw on 20psi on shell v power.

i ran 16psi on my old car n/a engine bolt on turbo with a 2.6mm headgasket lasted about 5months then blew headgasket between 1st and 2nd and also 4th and 5th. i think it might last a couple of weeks but depends on how hard you drive it

What a crazy 2 weeks it would be !! Might wanna look into water/meth injection too, timing becomes a massive problem on a high comp motor running high boost...
