I don't think I'm pushing the car to its limits, but I am aware of the risks associated with aftermarket tuning. But I'd like to hear from those who've had MAJOR breakdowns (blown engine, etc.) as a result of a similar setup. Am I being too much of a p**sy? LOL

Any feedback would be appreciated!
I only recall one post with a catastrophic failure and they were tuned on the track. Car went into limp mode, they shut it off, turned back on and continued to drive on the track. Had super knock.

Unknown if the failure was related to tune or it was just a weak engine.
