There's a few obvious changes, but my guess is there's a lot more to it. Could any of the newer factory setups be adapted to fit my engine? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) |

I haven't seen anyone mention what I would have considered fundamental to this mod. What about the normally aspirated compression ratio?
Wouldn't it limit the amount of boost you can dial in? I'd have thought it to need lower compression pistons. |

I'd have thought it to need lower compression pistons. That is my assumption. I don't really see the benefit to add a turbo to a 10.5:1 compression engine only to be severely limited by the amount of boost i can run. Lowering the compression really is a must, IMHO.
