[QUOTE="MalcolmV8, post: 15670505, member: 8854"] Oh that's terrible. I ran -19 cc in a build I did back in 08/09 and it was horrible. The low compression kills throttle response and makes the car feel very lazy and you have to crank the boost way up to get any power. Kills mpg a fair amount too which sucks because the tanks are so tiny on these cars planning routes so you can get to another E85 pump gets even worse. Your best bet are flat top pistons. One of the best builds I've ever done. Only intake reliefs are required and it puts you at 10.5 ~ 10.7 SCR depending on a few other factors. Throttle response is crisp and instant, power is fantastic with less boost and the car sounds really mean. High compression motors have a really good exhaust note. [/QUOTE]
