[QUOTE="3.7cyclone, post: 15362726, member: 158610"] The rods letting go appear to be a rare issue though it appears to be more prevalent with the 2015 motors. Most of the shops state about 500WHP is as far as they would go on a stock bottom end. I have a 16 with a larger turbo kit with nearly all the corresponding components and its been pretty reliable so far no issues noted, and that was with one freak lean condition with a failed WG vacuum line too. (Lost one plug) However modding is tricky stuff on any motor so as long as you have the cash or a good shop to restore to factory and or replace the block yourself, its the ones who blindly go throwing parts at it expecting miracles that make the rest look bad, especially when they over rev the snot out of things =) [/QUOTE]
