and second. why hasnt anyone answered this guys question
dood stafford fabractions came out with a kit for our cars, a direct application for stock internals. its $2900, as for internals, my brother at Blackdog motorsports is offering turbo pistons that raise compression to 9.1:1. theres a topic in this section FORCED/INDUCTION that tells u all about the turbo kit, and all about the pistons. as for rods and other internals, have fun finding that
eric


lesson: search mucho for ur questions

ok i got a good question, according to the power catalyst is putting out, thats around the same range a type-s swap would be running. the questions is, would u be able to run 14.5 with a type-s swap as well, will u be whooping the type-s in a drag? or would it be even?

9.1:1 lowers compression BTW it doesn't raise it. Some peopel daily drive at 8 psi. Most reliable so far seems to be the SF kit, only because the originally fuel system it cam with withheld 13psi on Catalyst's car. Max-Rev and Turbo Discounters have kits as well that are both excellent, but someone needs to push them more to see what they can take.
