I finally reached 200,000 miles this week and as of today I have 200,365 mile on my ti. I am very happy! I feel like I got more than my moneys worth out of my car. I think I am going to start saving for an engine swap. |  |  | | 05-17-2006, 10:45 PM | #2 | | Senior Member Join Date: Apr 2006 Location: Potomac, Maryland Posts: 230 |

Are you at all hesitant to put the super charger on the engine with that many miles? I guess if your compression is good you should be fine. I know my car feels the same way its felt when I bought it. | | | | | 05-17-2006, 11:16 PM | #5 | | aka Stabby Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: Mead, CO Posts: 5,336 |
i don't drive it 35 miles each way to work any more like i used to either, so i'm less worried if something did happen, but as long as it checks out, i believe it should be fine. with the thin air up here, i need boost! __________________ 1996 318ti, California package, 267k miles
