Compression ratio's equal which is more ideal for a turbocharged motor?
flat top?? dished?? I have a set of brand new (used for 300 miles) 2.0 flat top Euro pistons and cylinders on my current motor. The motor is sitting on my workbench waiting for me to finish putting it back together. I do not want to drop the motor in a few months when I get around to finalizing a turbo design for it. |

A general rule as I understand it is:
Flat or domed piston=less or lesser combustion chamber(respectively (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ) This = too a higher compression ratio a dished piston would have a lower compression ratio for the reverse reasons Turbo's like lower compression so you can biuld it up with lots o boost |
