i just got my JE pistons which i thought were going to be 8.8, but turned out to be custom made 9.6 stock compression...why, i dont know...but im planning on running 15-18psi with a 14b....how much harder will it be to tune with these compared to the 8.8's? is there a horsepower ratio for the two pistons so i could do some fuel estimates? thanks

yeah...stock compression, or a little lower like 9.25-9.6 range he said...they were custom made stock bore pistons and i need to order a different set of wrist pins... so im going to guess stock compression and i just wanted to see how much harder it would be to tune and what i risk running higher compression

yea detonation will own you if you dont take necessary precautions, you'll be making well over 300whp at your said boost pressure though emoji
