Bottom ends are fairly strong, the obvious weak point is the rod's, most people that turbo crack ringlands but thats only because they don't map them/do it badly.

It would be very good on track, the turbo spools very nice I tried to keep everything as smooth and progressive as we can. We've decided to Vtec VERY early, as in big jumps in torque will put added pressure on the rods. We have 15psi of boost at 4600rpm's which is very good for a turbo this size on an 1.8.
