I don't understand what's wrong with running higher compression and less boost rather than lower compression and then turning up the boost.

You get more HP out of boost than you do out of the compression, within reason of course.

Don't forget that the Darts are new castings with thicker decks than the stockers. You can deshroud for the LQ9's larger bore, then cc the chamber to be large enough to run boost if that's the intent.

Thats what Im trying to tell everyone. The shoip near me charges 175 to do the chambers however you want them. I can get them cheaper than anyone has posted up Denali if you want same place that I told oyu about the rotating assembly.

PM me for more details.
