Default Plz...help me choose a compression ratio.
Ok guys, I'm ordering some pistons/rods for my d16a6 today. I've founds some by Race Engineering which are 8:8 and then there is SRP 9.5 c/r pistons. I want have at least 250+whp on pump gas at 15psi. I will modify my ecu so it should be tuned decently. I've been trying to decide this for weeks but can't make up my mind! Someone plz help. I need to order these today.

Thanks,
-Joe

15psi... 93 octane.... I think you would be happier with 9.5:1

9.5:1

You'll be way past 250 whp at 15 psi with an A6.
