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 |

so basically stay with the red top for the 6th gen. now how much different are the valves in the black top vs the red top? could we use the 6sp black top valves in the red top as an upgrade? are the other demensions of the valves the same other then the diameter of the valve itself? i think it would be a worthwile upgrade stronger, lighter and bigger.
