Boost vs. Compression Table
I borrowed this table from team-integra.net (thanks BoostControl). I'm curious as to how one would calculate this table. I'm looking to carry it out a bit further (say to 11:1 compression). Anyone got any thoughts as to how to calculate it, or just thoughts on the table in general?
This is the link the page on team-integra.

Re: Boost vs. Compression Table (94TealGSR)
easy just take
BOOST LEVEL / 14.7 = ____ + 1 = ____ * COMPRESSION RATIO = that number, called effective compression

if does say for non-intercooled, my compression seems to be way out of safe zone for that graph, its not even on there...

Re: Boost vs. Compression Table (94TealGSR)
btw, the BS-o-meter is off the charts...
for example lets say stock greddy kit for a 95 civic non intercooled...
5.5psi / 14.7 + 1 * 9.6cr = 13.2 effective compression.... so that means the civic geddy kit is unsafe and that you would have to buy a boost controller and turn the greddy kit down to 2psi to make sure its safe

Re: Boost vs. Compression Table (Civic420)
Yeah, I actually had a discussion with that guy. He's really conservative when it comes to boost. He was suggesting to somebody to not run higher than 7psi on a b18b with 9.0:1 pistons, eagle rods, 220lph fuel pump, on a tuned s-afc hack with 450's.
And then only ~12 psi once it's sleeved.
