Damn... 10:1... I guess 116 becomes pretty necessary at that base compression.
Since I'm planning on 100 octane, and since I don't want to do cams, I'm probably best of sticking w/ the normal base compression and the smaller turbo... I bet that 35R would be too laggy on my motor, so even if I was making 400+ whp out of it, the smaller 30R would actually be faster around the track.
How much boost are you planning on running in a "high boost" scenario on the L? Would you be able to get to 2 bar?
Also, are you running a high red line to make use of those heads?
