Sure you can, you won't be able to run much and you'll need a tuner who's confident at what he does, but it can be done. It's all about where you want your power... if you want more top end you'll have to drop the compression a little.

a thick hg would raise the compression not lower it. do you have any idea what compression you're actually at? how did you come up with 12.1? not to say it can't be done, but it'd be a lot easier to boost and tune it if it were like 9:1 or there abouts.

To the OP, with what you have listed there...depending on the HG, your compression should be about 11:1
Not sure where you figure out the higher number from!

the shop that it was done at they had told me that the compression would be around 12.1 i know i sound like a fool but ive always went stock b20b with high boost and a great tune but now i just wanna try somethn else after i threw a rod in my old b20 so thats y i hav no clue wats goin on or wat to do sorry guys and thanx for tryn to help me out tho... so if u say it sounds like its a 11.1 comp i guess thats better for me cuz i was about to go another route and start over but that would be a pain in the *** for me

yes that is what i meant. it came out bass ackwards lol. it raises how high the cylinder head sits and how much volume is in the combustion chamber though. i think that's how i managed to confuse that lol.
