compression ratio and motor build help?
 

My block is a zc, which from what I've read is comparable to a 92-96 d16z6, my head is 98 d16y8, I used a y8 Gasket which is thinner then z6, mods r skunk2 intake manifold, Cai, header and exhaust,

My compression readings were 231,215,222, and 229, I know stock is suppose to be 185ish...

I do know I'm burning a quart of oil a week, I replaced the valve seals and no help, so I'm assuming oil rings...

So anyways I'm trying to figure out what my compression rating is so I can decide on building motor for turbo or getting it ready for nitrous?

What pistons should I change to? Or do I just replace rings?
Should I put a bigger cam and springs?

I'm wanting to lean motor build even tho yes I know its expensive but I'm running Obd2 now and downgrading to Obd1 then turbo sounds confusing...

Any help would be appreciated Thx!

Don't know why you had to assume it was the rings. A leakdown test would have told you that.
Forced Induction forum.
Don't know that there is a difference in building an engine for any type of forced induction scenario. YOu want lower compression pistons for boost or else your tuner has to be pretty good. Don't look to boost o high if you build for high compression first THEN try and go boost.
