All i'm trying to point out to the guy is that it will feel slower, less responsive, laggier, off boost if he drops the CR and is not needed unless he's going for really big BHP.
Do you not agree?
no,ud never notice it on the road its that minimal,so the makin it laggy as fuk i still disagree
anyway am out,until u go away and test a std engine,low comp it then compare the differences then am not going to comment again
