i never said **** was reliable.
i did say you will break ****. that's something i and every other tuner and wanna-be has learned. **** with your car and something can and will break. and it's always when you don't want or need **** breaking but the desire for more power is an addiction. just my 2cent, personal experience and the fact that i've witnessed many a broken heart and empty wallet.

yeah but i feel like its all end to a means like waht happens when you get your intake,tb,header,dp,cat back,pulley,cams,manifold,tune. after that what else is their besides porting and polishing. supercharge your throwing it on and then you can add stage kits, even run meth.

if i understand correctly as well, using high octane fuel in a regular unmodded car will do nothin right? and i think someone told me it can be harmful to the engine, correct?

in an unmodded car it's gonna burn a little cleaner. won't do **** for power though but I run 93 in my 05 Vue Redline v-tek powered 3.5l anyway. the higher octane full also you to advance spark ignition in order to creat more power. with the right mods you can get a lot outta your little 2.2l.
