Default Turbo GSR

Is a Turbo good with a Gsr engine because of the compression?

don't tell him that w/out anything to back it up or else you'll just confuse the poor newbie!

CR has a lot to do with the motors powerband and reliablity. If you have a great tuner or a great fuel managment setup you should be able to make a higher compression motor like b16a2, b18c1, b18c5 ect....


compressions with lower compression like d16's and LS/B20 seem to be easyer to mess around with as in tuning.

Please do search...

Race cars use a high compression with turbo. They don't have an early spooling turbo though. This gives them BOOOST in the mid/high rpm band and good off the line response with the compression.

A street car would probably do better with a turbo that spools up in the lower rpm band so the lower compression would help in that case. This way they don't have lag issues in traffic and normal driving conditions and they get decent power withough having to rev to the moon.
