I know that the 3s-ge engine has a higher compression ratio than the 3s-gte (which I guess means that the pistons' head are thiner right?), but what does it change so that we can't (or shall not) turbocharge the 3s-ge?
Is it because it would (I don't know) be too much compressed exhaust gases for the turbo to hold? BTW: what does the last number in the compression ratio mean? (Like in 10:3:1) This post has been edited by dudeofchaos: Jun 26, 2011 - 10:51 PM |

here we go again....there is nothing wrong with boosting high compression. the 2ZZ-GE is 11.5:1 compression and we run 10psi boost all day long. just make sure you have a good tune. yes detonation will be the killer. the ringlands will be the first to go
