Car has 10,000 Miles. 5000 of the miles have been with a Kenne Bell 2.8L Supercharger and the tune is for 110 octane race fuel as the main mod.
With this type of mod/tune what is the expected life span of the engine? Someone told me it might only last for 20k miles running this type of "compression."
Would it last longer if I swapped the pulley an drove it with 93 octane fuel.
The Owner also said that since installing kooks Long Tube Headers its had a rough start up idle while it warms up. Does this sound normal to you or
something you would investigate further. He said he called Kooks about this and that they said because their aluminium headers are thin so they tend
to let more sound out.
I guess I'm wondering if the race fuel tune has already taken a toll on the engine...
Thoughts? Opinions?
Thanks!
