What determines required compression ratio for turbo applications?
Howdy all,
Im curious, what exactly determines required C/R for turbo applications? i.e. of late, i keep hearing people say "you need low comp for big boost", i kind of get the jist in as much as a headgasket can only take a given amount of internal pressure, but how do the two relate?
