Default Opinions on Chill Factory with stock motor

I've been checking out the CF turbo set up and was looking at their Stage 2 setup. Says 250-275 hp at the wheels at 8-10 psi with no internal modifications needed. From what I understand, that's bolting it on and she's good to go.

I know my motor has 180,000 km on it and everyone here would flame if I put it on, but my motor runs strong as hell, doesn't burn oil, and the small leaks it has I will be taking care of.


My question would be will the stock motor handle this power? Its basically an extra 100hp+, was this motor built to handle the extra pressure?

Thanks, Sean

The Chill factory is a great setup, but are now out of business that I know of. You can bolt it on and go, but you HAVE to make sure your engine is in tip top shape. If there is something wrong, like a leaking ring or anything like that, the turbo WILL abuse and break it! The engine block can hold 8-10psi without any problems.

I do know someone who is selling their Chill Factory Stage 2 kit that was barely used for $2100 shipped. Let me know if you are interested.

Intercooler=yes, missing link=no, but you can get one for around $30-$50.
