Re: 7.5.1 comp ratio

boosted it will be ok not the best but do able. 1st gen eclipses have like a 7.8 cr so it is possible to make big power on a low cr but it will take longer to spool the turbo and will be slow as ---- off boost

Well the good new's is you can run a ton of boost on crappy gas and still make some good numbers.

Re: 7.5.1 comp ratio

I cant say for sure with your set up, but I have a low compression motor also. I have the timing at stock N/A and run over 17psi with out getting any knock on pump gas.
