You mean current durability? Because I have yet to hear of a piggyback tuned N54 requiring any MORE maintenance than any other regular N54.

And are you saying that merely the "better" intakes and exhaust added 50/lbs of torque(catted as well)?????? Uhhh...no. The boost has been increased pure and simple to make the bulk of that extra torque.
