That sure is purdie!!! The only thing about these JDM kits is the premium you have to pay (in comparison to USDM's). :P ....I can wait for Greddy's.

That's a good question, does anyone know the compression ratio? Too high and a Turbo won't work well enough.
A supercharger might be the way to go anyway, no lag then.

Thanx for the info... Looks like it might be ok for a turbo after all. 10.8 is getting up there. I still think the supercharger might be the way to go. Carb issues with inspection emissions here in the states is a big problem so we'll have to wait and see.

P.S. Claymore, are you really a bomb tech? That is a really funny quote either way!

Comp ratio for U.S. models is 10.4:1, personaly i wouldn't like taht for a turbo setup, though with that high there would be no turbo lag, lol.
