what do you guys think about a 10.5:1 compression with a turbo. do you think the added compression is too much.? will the high compression with the turbo help make more horesepower.

It's not like people turbo stock B16's and S2000's... that's ridiculous. I'd give someone 5 cents if they did that.

People so it all the time. It not good for long pulls or anything. But you can make lot of power on little boost.

could it be used as a daily driver.? on about 8psi.

what would you guys do to make alot of horsepower a still use it as a daily driver.?
so far:
d16y7
y8 intake manifold
t28 turbo on hf manifold
2.5 " exhaust
fmu and missing link

Yeah you could drive it everyday if you like. I wouldn't run the FMU since they suck and have carbon build like a mother but yeah as long as its tuned right and everything is good it should be a nice fast car.

I hope you don't think a stock d16y7 has a 10.5:1 c/r. BTW, I ran my b16a (10.4:1 c/r) up until last december at 13 psi no problems...just tuned well, and for long pulls as well.

My friend had a 230 hp b16a and melted a piston racing a 400 hp Starion 3 times up to 120 mph. It was just the edge of the piston about 3/4 of an inch long. Just got way too hot.

What grade of oil was he using? Sounds like an oil problem, like too thin of a grade.

Think about it...120mph is 5th gear land. Full boost+high load=hot enough to melt ---- :1
