Keep the boost down and be easy airing it out and the drive will stay alive for a while. The upper gear set is what usually breaks(or that has been my experience) couple things help, a big top cap, and steel tower in the upper housing(like in the xz, and xr have). That being said at least the bravos are cheap to fix, and parts are readily available.

Jazzy's right, it will live for a while. I had a M3 procharged XT280, I blew the floor out of the upper gear. We changed to XR gears, a steel tower and modified top cap. I lost 1 MPH in doing so. I think if I had to do over again, I would have switched to XZ gears. IF you go easy on it, it will last longer.
