high compression turbo
what are everyones thoughts?
like 10-10.5:1 with a small turbo. would seem to make since on the street. but then again i could be wrong, just trying to be different. im talking built bottom end when i say 10-10.5 or higher... everyone always says 9:1

Re: high compression turbo
when i have a sleeved block, i will be running at least 9:8, if not higher........ arent gsr's that high of a compression, like 10:2 ?, and they run strong as hell on low boost.......

Re: high compression turbo
Its not about how strong the block is. Its about avoiding detonation. That is the problem with higher c/r. You will be limited to the amount of boost you can run on a higher compression motor, especially with a smaller turbo. At the track its a different story when you can run race gas.
