No seriously I chased Big E on the Autobahn up a moderately steep hill running full boost/throttle for about 4-5 mins. My WRX was running around 370BHP at 1.4 Bar - I threw a bearing on cylinder 3 I think it was. No significant damage to the block, rods or Pistons. Think it was a combination of oil temp and also some Set as I was on an ECUTek map without the protection of syvecs knock detection!
