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 |

Looks like it can. Ive looked into it for a bit on the EPC and they share the same part #'s and design. Then again would be better to get 100% visual verification. Also what i meant in showing the TODA link was that there were VVTI enabled cams(looks like we just ended up saying the same thing). Shame they only have two different profiles, but then again how much aggressive would you want them to be?
