[QUOTE="Dirks9901, post: 16586510, member: 34387"] You can grow into the D1 if you plan on building the motor. Look, the "horror" stories you are reading online usually are not the complete story. There are additional factors that went into the fact the motor let go. These motors hold boost and make some power if the setup is on point and precautions are taken. Do your HW. The biggest factor is the tune IMO. You need to find a tuner who looks at timing/safety as the most important factor. There are tons of tuners out there who go for max RWHP no matter the cost on the dyno. Then people wonder why it let go after 2-3k miles. I'll be honest, if you put a blower on your car and constantly worry about whether its going to pop its going to be a miserable experience. If that is the case, I wouldn't bother until you have more piece of mind with a built bottom end. Even then, you have to realize that things are going to break. Its part of the game. [/QUOTE]
