Default Chipping

I read somewhere on here that I can't chip my car after it's hit 100k miles. is this true? why the hell should that matter one bit?

Default you obvioulsy didnt read that here...

as long as your compression/leak-down check out fine and your turbo has a clean bill of health...chipping is A-OK.
I chipped at 92K after I replaced my shot turbo.

Default What ever you read is right. Our cars will fall apart and die at exactly 100k

More seriously if you checked you would see that many people chip or even go big turbo at over 100k
