lower compression pistons
Hey, how much power can you gain (or safety, I've heard) by going to lower compression pistons?
I'm talking about big turbos, lots of fuel, and people use lower compression pistons-I guess you can cram more air and fuel in using them?

It really all depends on your combonation, on the street you'll lose bottom end power by lowering compression but can gain on the mid and top if you have enough air volume and fuel.

I guess you are affiliated with Floor it diesel?
Does your 10 sec CR use lower compression pistons?
It wouldn't be a stock short block at 1032 HP?
What connection is there between the Artic Airs twins and the 10 sec. common rail, I've heard different things, you use 1 different charger ?
Is there a map page to the Floor It website, so I can look at everything there? I saw an article there on CP-3 FCA modifications, but it was linked from another web site, probably TDR, from RCOXX, I think.
