which is low comp + boost.

Thank you guys for the helpful imput though. Will be replacing rods & pistons when I do build it.

Dont go with any compression less than stock. Outside of boost the car is gonna feel horrible, and the stock compression is actually a good starting point for a turbo car. Not too low to make it sluggish, not to high to where you have to worry about how high it is

I give up. Why do we even bother?

That's fine. Its your vehicle, do what you want, but when you have god awful off-boost power, don't say we didnt warn you.

I hope you're planning to run a 6466 on it as well...on 8psi, just to keep it 'streetable'

For what its worth, if i was to ever build another Honda, it would never be under 10:1 CR. And this isn't my first time - I (we) have learned the pitfalls and are only looking to steer you in the right direction.
