I change the plugs/wires/cap/rotor/fuel filter etc. when they are supposed to. Maintenance is a huge thing with me. I used to run nitrous and i had a turbocharger on the truck before and without the proper maintenance i dont think it would run anymore. I was running 14psi through the motor with just tuning on 93 octane. Truck was making 360whp & 455ft.lbs of torque and it actually got about ~21mpg with the turbo. was running a small T3/T04e 60trim turbocharger .63 a/r and it was great. turbo would spool @ about a 1/4 throttle make some boost and i was off barely on the throttle.

Burnt up the valves when i switched to a 70mm turbocharger on only 7psi but beat on it and the motor didnt like it obviously.
