Message there, I don't think life is worth living anymore...

In regard to the turbos, mine have been weeping oil and smoking since I got the car 4 years ago (with 64K miles on the car). They're hanging on with the car at 102,000+, but - and this is where you should be sure you're sitting down - I am inclined to replace them with stockers. However, recent info has come to light that seems to say that you can run sport500s on stock injectors and upwards of 12 psi. If that is true, I might reconsider. Otherwise, I'll stay with stock turbos and keep the boost upwards of 15 psi.

Once again, I cannot vouch for the validity of the info that says 500's @ 12 psi on stock injectors is a good idea (I'm sure the duty cycle on them would be at or near 100%).
