How does compression ratio have anything to do with boost pressure?

Higher CR= less cylinder volume to fill

Thats why back in the day when there werent any big maggies available a lot of people were going with 10:1CR engines. Its also why the LQ9s ran so good with the ole 112s.

That tvs is in the Texas section. You can spray it on top o the 5 or 6 # you will be able to get out of the TVs then it will be quicker with that low of compression you would be better off with my Turbo stuff......... you know you want it

Ooooooo that might be kinda kool!!! Never had a Procharger before. I'm running 72lb injectors right now lol They are leftover from my turbo build and I figured I'd re-use them for the time being! How much do used systems go for? Where do I find one cuz most people on here are either turbo or maggie.
