So what is off-boost performance like with a low c.r.? I am guessing quite slow.....but all the more fun when the turbo starts to work?

i'm guessing the way to combat the sluggishness off boost is to keep the revs high betweeen gears??

try to keep an area of 'squish' in the chamber ie,'D' shape chamber ,area of squish is then opposite spark plug pushing mixture towards it (and supressing detonation)- and dont make the volume between turbo and carb too big , ie,to bigger bore of intercooler pipes or too large an intercooler - lag is the time it takes to start moving and compress this volume into the engine 7.5 :1 will be good for just about anything power wise ,and its not how big the intercooler is its mainly how much air you can get through it as to how efficient it is . |

I've noticed that Stuarts tag says 'where in nappies' , shouldn't that read 'were in nappies' ?
