so lets see, all this stuff about dropping the compression (according to the listers, this is the ONLY way to safley boost a motor) in my customer 968's/S2' while adding my turbo conversion is what?
Gee, I've stood by my beliefe that boost and compression can be mixed up a bit :-0
I guess I'll just keep building'um :-)
Stay tuned :-)</strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana,Tahoma,Arial,Helvetica,Geneva">I don't think you can compare your turbocharged 968 motor to a norwood motor.... It is just not a fair comparision stock 968 w/ a bolt on turbo vs a couldn't be more motified highly specialized 2.6L 968 Motor producing 600 hp.....

He's not saying that an 11:1 stock 968 engine can make 600 horsepower at 20 psi. He's saying that if Norwood can build a motor with 10:1 compression and run 24 psi, then he can SURELY do 3-6+ psi on an 11:1 engine no problem. We wouldn't be doing this with an 8 valve motor, the spark plug location and pent roof design of the 16 valve heads are superior to the 8 valves [need I translate this as meaning more reliable?]. Some of you guys are just too much...
