Re: how much boost with 9.2 to 1 compression?

thanks for the quick reply.i always run sunoco 94 octane. As far as boost goes i would be happy with 10-12 lbs of boost.Now when you say 12 lbs are you saying 12lbs with the water injection or just on the motor.

Water/alky is a great anti-detonate. I would advise anyone running any signficant amount of boost to use it.

is there any benefit to running water injection with an intercooler? I'm not seeing any detonation. just curious if there is anything to be gained.

I didnt use Water but used an smc alky system with my front mounted 2core intercooler. It worked great while it was on the car.
