I haven't heard of anyone really going on time frames for rebuilds, its more, if your charger starts making alot of crazy noises, or you bought a used one from someone and don't trust what they gave you for a background, its honestly not had to rebuild.

if it's quiet then you dont need to, once it starts getting a little noisy then it's time..its a distinct sound that you will hear. Keep up on the maintenance as far as changing the oil out and everything and it will last a bit

Haha im asking a serious question.

I was in high school when i purchased my first cobalt (2.4LNA). And when i was in high school i could hardly afford my car payments let alone modding it. I had to graduate and take out a student loan to mod my 2.4L when i had it.

Just curious what kind of sweet part time job he has to afford his modding and his car.

If he is only making X amount of money well in high school certain parts to a engine build may not be financially viable.

Not everyone has a unlimited plethora of money
