Least trouble with TII?
I'm just looking to see who has had the least trouble with their TII. Like nothing has had to be done besides regular maintence, only replaced the radiator, ect, ect, ect. Also, how long have you had the car with what miles and what mods. Thanks.

i got mine with 84,000 bone stock miles on her--now i have 112,000 mods in sig. the only problem i have is my abs hydro. pump leaks slowy. other than that i havent had a problem or got stuck
i have raised the boost from the stock 5.5psi to 13-15psi granted i have done some fuel mods.
i have had 28,000 miles of problem free driving. i dont drive hard all day everyday. i occasionaly take her to redline and 15psi but for the most part i keep it around 3000-6000rpm (depending on how full the fuel tank is) and 10psi.
i have had her for about 2yrs now about to go haltech/fmic

hmmm...
(280,000 kms / 180,000 miles (around) )
I am replacing some oil lines, my exhaust and possibly the oil cooler, all of which are still stock (excepts the oil lines).
The re-build was done around 250,000 kms (mostly highway miles).
There is a minor coolant seal leak on the re-build, should be able to stop that by re-tourqing the engine bolts ($350 CDN job, $240 US).
Just had my clutch replaced (probably the 3rd-5th clutch in the car overall from previous owners [and I wore one out in 2 months of driving the car after I bought it] ).
I keep up with regular maintainence, she runs great and handles even better (Stock suspension).
I will be doing some mods on it though, more fuel (larger injectors + pump) = more boost (RB exhaust), bigger alternator (to handle my stereo system I plan on putting in, no subs though, just pure BOSE speakers).
The leather on the interior is fairly worn, I will probably have that re-leathered, or replace the seats with rocaro racing seats.
I am going to put on all the anti-sway and brace bars on, and install a small roll cage that will only be in the back (mostly for frame support).
I don't plan on going over 350 HP with this car, and its almost time to get the thing re-painted (hail damage )
Oh well, that is my car's history (oh yea and air-pump bearings are failing).
