Re: Piston Swap

How far are you going to lower your compression? Do you think it will be worth it? It should help HP, but lose low end TQ and spool up.

I'll probably try lower it to 8:1 to 8.5:1. The crank case pressure makes the car undrivable with stock cams and tuning has always been really difficult, so it's either this or part the car out.
