daily driver went kaboom
Hey guys, after 5 months of happiness my engine just gave up 
..anyways since is time to move on i have in sight another engine... my car is a daily driver so considering this, my question is, would this engine be ¨tolerable¨ for daily driving use? not taking SO much into consideration mpg etc, just focusing on whether is worth buying this engine and use it as a daily driver but of course having in mind i do want a fastER car...these r some things on it,, the internals were built in puerto rico so i beleive they did a good job..
13b specs
t66 garrett
racing beat manifold, damper and alt. pulley
1600 injectors ( just going for 720s, but thats what the engine comes with)
fmic
hks waste gate
bov
fuel rail
rotary aviation seals..
,,need opinions

IMO I wouldnt use it as a DD.More horse usually results in less reliability so if you are looking long-term you may want to think about it.If youre looking to have some fun with a quick car then go for it.
