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 |

Bonzai, I dont understand your last comment, but you edited it anway. My understanding why people disable their vvti when they start chasing bigger power with turbo, for a few reasons: lack of aftermarket camshafts (there maybe more options nowadays, but maybe not in the same price range as nonvvti camshafts) and secondly the cost of dyno tuning time to tune in the vvti.
that's what I was about to say. That they remove vvt-i simply to achieve more horsepower. Oh so it takes more tuning time with vvt-i huh didn't know that.... -------------------- Group buy to replicate Narrow E series transaxle parts
