#72112 I have an A6 on mine and it does fine. FYI watch the boost if u have a D15 block. Compression is alot higher when u put a D16 head on that block. Mine is 11:1-200PSI kinda high for boost. Mines gettin the bottle.....

#72198 yes good idea always take your time patients is a well needed thing in the world today and in undertaking a engine build since of coarse parts tend to take time to accumulate.
Well goodluck on her im doing a mini me as well soon but not turboing it.....

with low comp pistons you should end up being fine with turboing your motor. with a mini me ontop

#72232 i hope so..im going to get all my parts together first and then once i have all in my posession, then ill start the rebuild...i have a 2001 eclipse gt that i can drive and a 07 accord so i dont have to rush and try and get it running in 2 days. this will be my first build so bare with me if i ask alot of questions(ill use the search button first to avoid the flamming :x )
