You saying a 7 bolt can go to 36 psi and 450 HP or just up to 18 psi?

So what can a 6 bolt do?

How about a 2.4? <My next Block, I hope>

I watch my knock like a hawk, <but that's easy with a remap of the knock count to the CEL with Dsmlink!> and always run only mobil1.

I have a A/T on my 7 bolt which I hear reduces the C/W odds, but that berring #3 statement makes me a bit nervous.

Is there really a big limitation on just how far you can go with a 7 bolt before she deeps 6's compared to pushing a 6 bolt?

So just when can I expect my 7 bolt motor also implode into another mangled pile of DSM shit?

TIA.....


PS: Both Rick and Mike have done great work for "me and my Tsi! the past couple years" I am now here only to learn and drive, which I can't do very well either!
