Well the bottom end kit that howell autmotoive has brings me to 8.6.1 compression..and standard size.Now is that good/better for going turbo or would 8.8.1 compression be better? Im not sure aboot all this exactly


and does anyone use an hks ssq bov and how do you like it? did it mount up well with the star kit?? would anyone recomend different any suggestions at all..Ive done some searching but didnt really find much of what I was looking for I guess..

all in what you want to do,

8.6:1 u can run slightly more boost then 8.8:1 8.8:1 spools just a smidge faster then 8.6:1

its really preference...

You can have it cheap, fast or good. Pick any two.

If you want it cheap and fast, it's not going to be good.

the HKS SS BOV is an awesome upgrade for the turbo, and it makes the spool whistle LOUD. very scary to NT guys like honduhs

hm well whats the difference between the recirculation kit for the hks? and just the blow off valve? and would the ball bearing Turbonetics T04/T3 Turbo help spool up?? and is it a really big difference with the 8:6:1 compression from the 8:8?

and whats the equivalent to a hahn power fuel moduel?(just makin sure)

you'll never notice the difference in compression. i have 8.6:1 and i noticed a very small difference between that and stock when i take the wastegate actuator pin out. stock compression with a S16G in there and 8.6:1 with a S16G in there is about the same. both are very slow.
