thats what i thought but i wasnt gonna tell him what to do on his setup :shrug:

 

i ran 8 psi on 10.5 comp, with forged bottom, and was looking to add n2o before i joined the dark side. boost doesn't not like high comp, you just can't run the extreme levels like you could with lower comp. on my plus side i had power when not under boost also. the mini-me mentioned also has some other tricks up his sleeve.

i would worry about a 100 shot on a stock parts with comp, one small mistake in the a/f is going to burn you.

 

I got to say I'm pretty skeptical of anyone getting away with that much boost on top of that much compression.

Compression + boost has its limits no matter what the piston geometry or chamber design is like.

 

yeah it's sounds weird but pm bert-o he works with the guy at bradention honda. i just sold him a part and saw the car and know a y8 head on a a6 bottom is 11.1:1comp. so ask him

 

last time i checked i believe seeker one steve had forged internals, but i could be worng.

 

Nope, its doable and can be realiable. As long as your air/fuel mixture is correct, anything is possible. Hint, Hint .....engine management.Hell, I've seen B-series motor running 12.5 comp or higher on pump gas.

 

Yes, he did rebuild it for more boost and to run a bigger Nos jet.
However, he didn't have no problem running with the same set-up, But he is running a engine management to correct his air/fuel ratio in order for hime to generate more boost.

His setup will take out B-series guys with or without forced induction. His mods quite sleeper with his SOHC mini me.

 

not that this has everything to do with the inntial topic but since i was mentioned i would like to set the record straight.
i have run a mini-me setup (A6 block-Y8 head 11.0-1compression) with 11psi JRSC boost with 25ish nitrous shot...this dynoed to 189hp and 174trq. this WAS with stock pistons and rods. this configuration was damaged by running an extended high speed, full boost and juice fifth gear run(speedo was WAY buried). stock cast pistons were subjected to severe stress and reponded by cracking at the ring lands. engine was reassembled using forged pistons and rods with slightly lower compression(approximately 10.3-1) and fed a slightly larger dose of nitrous. this configuration has dynoed at 200hp and 165trq. anyone who knows my car will verify the fact that it is no race car being complete interior plus the usual 1/2 ton of misc. junk floating around in the back. also being a sohc means the the best Dseries trans is equal the the worst Bseries trans. as far as being a threat i can hold my own.
<rant mode off> with all that being said can what was intially asked be done...quite possibly. but the most important thing is tuning. don't think that you can just bolt a few pieces on, add the juice and be ready to go. tuning is the key to increasing power by the amount you want and still retaining some sense of drivability and reliability. as other have said start smaller and work up from there. a standalone is most helpful (work great for me) but is worthless if not tuned with the help of someone who knows the path.

 

hey steve, was that on the squeeze or just the mechanical stuff?
