If you get greedy with the boost you will blow it up. Obviously this will cost a good bit of money and you should upgrade the engine cooling. If your transmission is weak it may be the first thing to go.

The biggest negative would be not passing smog inspection if you do not use smog legal parts.

Well I guess that clears this up. Thank you. Another question if I may, what about those performance chips that plug into the computer? Do they really work? Thanks. RS
