custom turbo infos!!
Hi, i'm pretty much newby in the car world, but I'm learning pretty fast. (btw i don't speak/write english often but i can understand it, so if something isn't clear it may be the words/syntax i'm using)
so I have an 2002 coupe accord ex-l 4cyl in wich i want to swap an h22, or I may have a good deal on a h23block/h22 head, but i don't want to put it in my car since I have finish with the engine.
i'm going to change all the internal parts, sleeve the block, custom turbo with cooler.
so those are my questions:
- can I go with JE 10:1 forged pistons instead of the most recomended 9:1, cause I know that the higher compression of the 10:1 may be high for turbo application, but in the other hand, i will change the fuel line to put as much gaz as the boost will need, so i don't think it can be that bad, no??
- where can I find as much info on about evrything on turbos, wastegate... url's???
- what should I worry about in a turbo setup, lean!! what else i CAN'T forget??
any help would be apreciated

Yes you can go with 10:1 pistons. With your built motor and with good tuning you will be fine.

Detonation, knock, oil lines, amount of boost, compressor surge, many many more.
