Default Compression on D before turbo
Just a quick poll of turbo D guys...

What compression numbers were you putting down before turbo, and how much boost are you successfully running?

ALso if you had any problems with this, specify

Thanks!

that does not help me. I am asking for actual numbers from people who went turbo. Looking to figure out what is safe.
