Where did you hear that from? Sounds like someone didn't know what they were talking about. Any engine will be prone to blowing up without properly building it and correctly tuning it. Its all about the tune and how realistic your setup is. If you're aiming for 250 whp with your L13 and stock internals, yes, your engine will blow up. But if you're shooting for 140 whp or something like that, then you could reach that goal, and with good tuning it could be very street-able.

You can turbo your L13 and daily drive it, just make sure you get someone to build it who knows what they're doing and has some experience.
