Gracias (thanks)
And sorry to hear about your mishap.
I'll be turbocharging this month and will be running into a lot of the problems you and others already encounter.
So I feel yor ya.
Did you decided what to do with your engine?

[freeturkeys]

here's a question for hector... im assuming that that drop in compression hurt your performance while you are still na... but is it THAT much different from stock? like would it be a bad idea to work my motor before turbo? what im saying is... in that gap in between built motor and turbo would it be very unbearable to drive the car or is it not that bad?

You are right the low compresion hurts performance but it will not hurt your engine.
It runs very good on high speed after you build up compresion.
Or if you accelerate very high and let go on first it will raely go but as you shift gears you willnoticed a drop on speed.
I've runn this engine for 2 or 3 months now and id running good.
The car is a the shop for turbo and will be ready next month.

Another question was if there is more to do for a full engine and the answer is yes.
You can do way more, this FAQ is for the engine block only after that is done you will have to address the head, fuel injection, axels, clutch and the list go on and on and on.

I would assume that if the part number for the 76mm is:
Piston part # XT- 519P76 Wiseco 76mm 9:01 compression about $450.00
The 75mm piston would be XT-51975
