I dont fear turning up a Turbo as I see no harm in stuffing more air into the cylinders.

The engineers consider all such factors in their design and settle for the best trade offs yielding max HP versus longevity. Now if one makes modifications its true he may gain more HP but physics and material science just tells me something else has to suffer which may not be apparrent in the short run but over long time it could come back to bite you.
