Yeah, that's probably true. I read some where that when you start talking about significant boost then you need to think about the valve train. 12 lbs of boost on the back of an intake valve is going to be pushing down with a fair bit of force, even more so is pushing on the bottom of the exhaust valve.
I also know that turbo motors usually just keep making power as the RPMs go up. I could just see myself getting power crazy and keeping on the pedal so long as I felt the rush....... and looking down and seeing way past redline just in time to hear something break \:\)
