Turbo seems to like less CR than a Posi blower from what I've read, there was just some commentay about this in another thread.

LOL! I've been kicking around the idea with my 11.5:1

Thinking of a small turbo that will spool instantly. But like you said, just kicking around the idea.

I know of many boosted LS2's and they are 10.9:1, you should be fine with the correct camshaft and tuning.

im afraid of getting too much down low to hook. hopefully ill be making 1.65ish 60' times on motor with my new converter coming in. turbo lag seems benificial to me sometimes.

That´s good to know because my Denali is 10.5:1 and I´m planning on getting a supercharger for this thing

That is just it, the tuning needs to be spot on
But better fuel mileage, more usable power, better street maners.
I'll see how far my 10.1 boosted engine works and report back, although 10.1 is't too high, it is for high hp boosted engines....

I asume this of course would be with Forged P&R's to run that high of a CR??? Along with decent Head Studs & valve springs...
