    Default Force a Scion Xa

    Around 96k miles, if i want to go around 5-7psi....how long will that engine last? It only has 100hp stock, i want a TAD bit more! Also side question, i have seen some people put their turbo in the back of their car by their rear bumper and run the tubing up and back to their intake, is that even worth doing? I could only imagine it would take a while to get boost with the turbo being that far away from the engine. There is so little room in the engine bay.
    Thanks,
    Nick

    Fake blow off valve. The tubing is the exhaust pipe running back to the exhaust manifold.
