the internals are probably fairly worn by now, it will be pretty costly rebuilding it at this point. i would run it until it pops then either build a decent mid/low mileage engine or buy a good used one.

Rebuilding it now while it runs might save you from buy parts that could get damaged when it does pop, IE Side housings and Rotor housings.

Of course, S4 housings are fairly cheap.
