i have a 2001 integra type r and it has 63000 miles on it. its still in beautiful shape and the engine has barely been modded. i hope to some day turbo my type r, when i get the money saved up. how many miles is too many miles for safe forced induction? Is it a bad idea when the car hits a certain point? Any opinions are appreciated.

Depending on how much boost your gonna run, how hard the car has been ran thus far. But 63k miles isnt too old, I wouldnt run anymore then 7ish psi on the stock block tho.

I dont run her to hard. i go fast, but i'm not drag racing or anything... so my engine is not really worn out or over-exerted. Thanks for the help. hopefully there will be a turbo in my itr in the near future.
