Idiot? Modding ANY car will make reliability an issue. But my experience with my DSM has been very reliable. I don't know about you, but I expect things to break when I launch at 6k + and 10psi on the studder box. The fact that this car has held over 40 launches and passes on the STOCK axles, and 27psi (53 lb/min) on the STOCK block with 113,000 miles makes me smile. When my 3rd gear shift rail broke I didn't get mad, it sucked but in all honesty, shit starts to give you push it hard enough. So I upgraded to a hefty tranny that will support about anything I can throw at it.
P.S. Watch my car will throw a rod/ crankwalk/ and catch on fire tomorrow now...lol.
