Guest TurboSedan Posted August 25, 2003 Report Share Posted August 25, 2003 any of you TGP or Turbo 3.1 engine powered car owners out there have a 200,000 + mileage motor that has NOT been rebuilt and is still running good? i'm just wondering how *stock* boost levels affect the reliability or longetivity of the 3.1 MPFI engine.

god910 Posted August 25, 2003 Report Share Posted August 25, 2003 Well, I can tell you mine has ~140K on it and it's not sounding too good. But I know there are some out there that are in better shape. It still runs like a striped ass baboon, but it just doesn't sound too good.
