Low compression build or boost
 
Thinking of low compression build this year before i boost for next year. Any thoughts? Or would it make more sense just to boost this year, keep it low power then build next year? Ive read lots of post. Blown engines, safe 300whp builds, and other opinions on boost. But i havent really seen anything on driving around on low compression for awhile then boosting.

Thanks in advance.

Wait till next year and do it all at once

edit: I will add lowering compression will make your car slow AF so no point in doing that and trying to drive around lol

It'll kill power. I'd do it all at once or boost then build cuz then you get more power twice instead of all at once. Sounds funner that way
