anyway low compression would be the way to go unless you want to run race gas all the time. Go with a good size turbo to start with you can make more pump gas power becase the intake temps are lower and you wont wast your money because you will want a biger turbo right away if you get a small. somthing around a 60-1 or biger seems to work great for us.

You couldn't have said that in one post?

Again, I never said people didn't do it. I said it wasn't SAFE. I stand by that.

For those of you that think I "don't know ****", I could care less. It really doesn't hurt my feelings.

So I'm putting a thicker race gasket on it to try to drop it down to mid 9's. Well that be safe to run 93 octane all day for daily driving. I will be running an aem standalone with upgrade fuel pump and 720 fuel injectors. I plan to have it tune to run at 20psi of boost. Will this set up make it to the 400hp mark. Is 20psi too high even though the block will be sleeve with forge pistons and rods.
