Internals will last a while depending on the boost he is running.

your thread made it to nasioc (via streetfire)

http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/show....php?t=1817367

great build the electronics integration is very impressive

the one thing i would suggest is to start looking for a rear end solution
the r-160 lsd won't last.. I have personally stripped the spider gears in one at 250 hp in an AWD car. If those don't blow, that the accompanying r160 axles will snap

take a look at this build thread
http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/show...highlight=rear
he re did the rear sub frame and used an R200 (supra) with a custom rear subframe and custom axles($$)
