i have 2006 m/t 350z planning to go turbo but does mileage matter in order to put turbo?like what if i have 150 k miles then what shall i do?

 

Normal wear on motor. Motors only last so long without a rebuild if you Turbo your car at 150k I would imagine it would blow

 

some blow up at 10K miles.. some blow up at 100K.. some dont even blow. every car is different. Boosting a Z will put stress to your motor. It all comes down to if you have money to rebuild once it does blow. Always plan ahead. gl.

 

Well said, Vas

 

Rebuild. even if your shortblock is good, i am sure your heads need to have a vavle job at minimum. good luck!

 

The turbo doesn't blow your motor..... you do.

 

90k miles...turbo goes on next week....I no scare.

 

Compression test, if it comes back good, boost. Always be prepared though, have a back up sourced if this is your only car.

 

Its mandatory for all members to say “Im going turbo.”

 

70k miles on the motor, i decided to rebuild it...a fresh start... like it was said b4, as long as you have the money for it..

 

Get a good tune, don't crank up the boost. There's no real reason it should blow unless its driver/tuner error. The same things that will blow a 150k mile motor will blow a 10k mile motor. People thinking they can push the limits just because they have low mile engine are the ones that run into trouble.

 

I don't plan on going turbo on my Z until I reach about 150,000 miles. However, I'm going to rebuild or buy a built engine to swap first

I don't think I'd feel safe otherwise.

 

you must be real bored today... just bumping old build threads to check dreamer status

 

You will need to build the motor along with the forced induction set-up.
Any serious levels of boost will wreak havoc on a 150k mile motor!!!
Don't try to go cheap, this is not a cheap man's game. DO IT RIGHT....OR DO IT TWICE!!

 

I like that last line.

But i really hope this dude isnt going to try and rebuild his own motor. Or install a turbo kit. if he doesnt even know the concepts of wear and tear. thats scary...
