aha I'm planning on using it when racing....

according to this site http://www.knology.net/~jediklc/ compression should be at around 8.4/ youll notice a difference in the low end but youll be able to boost more. i might try this since i have z6 shortblock in my garage. but im waiting for my a6 motor to give up on me so i can grab the head off of it. dam it just keeps going and going...

i dunno about 11:1 compression, are you guys sure?

jeff's ls/vtec compression is like 19.2:2 or around there i believe

Now that's what I'm talking about, I got the idea everyone was thinking I meant a Mini-me. 8.4/1 compression sounds SWEET as hell for a turbo honda !!! A friend on mine is putting Z6 pistons in his A6 block in a few months hopefully.. He already has a greddy turbo kit.

fo shizle my nizle i dont give a fukizle cuzz im drunk as fukizle YO! booost that beatch!!!!

the comp would be 8.134469713946991-1 cr

and the mini me is from 10.4-1 all the way to 12.34 depending on which parts selected, not that ideal for boost

hey I think that UN-minime sounds sweet! You can get some upgraded internals and go for a HMT boost record! If those DSM guys can run 20 psi, why can't we??

I'd rather start with a higher compression engine and run less boost with good fuel managment, than a ------- incredibly low c/r and massive boost..

My friends GN runs 8.5/1 compression and 26psi and makes 800hp... But for a D-series ( with its limited stock internals, I see your point ).

with a higher compression you will get more power over the entire powerband and not only more power atwhere the turbo is all spooled up.
More boost doesn't always mean more power.
