[QUOTE="twistedneck, post: 13681304, member: 130159"] Indycar 2.2L turbo engines are 12.5:1 and run E85 fuel with 1.3 bar (18.9 psi) of boost at indy and 1.6 bar (23.2 psi) on road courses. the pistons are standard Mahle forgings and the piston size, material, valve sizes, etc.. are all similar to ours. no issues with high compression and FI if you have E85 or E98. It will be detonation limited though even with E85. the rods are steel, crank is a normal forging, and cylinders are lined. we should have no issues with 11:1. 10.5:1 may work better because you will have a nice flat piston w/o huge valve reliefs to cause detonation and flame travel problems.
