How many miles is too many?
Hey guys,

Im thinking baout buying a 4th gen. How many miles do you thikn is too many where putting a turbo or sc on would be a waste of time and kill the engine.

Thanks

Mileage is a mott point.

Compression is what's important.

A 50k engine with sub-spec compresion won't last half as long as a 150k engine with great compression.

Do a compression test and find your answer.
