True but they also have safety built in because the car was designed for all the extra heat. Take the GT-R for example. It has factory heat shielding around the turbos since they knew that extra heat would be there. That or they relocate items to an area without the heat. When you stick a turbo in that location on a Z there is no factory shielding protecting the things that can melt.

I completely agree that the manufacturer has to do their job in the original design. I was just pointing out that 'less' **** goes can go wrong on a factory boosted car.
