You just proved my point. You prefer a turbo. And like many others, would want a turbo because it offers a certain level of power. AKA you are turbo spoiled, if you weren't, you wouldn't have made this thread, and complained about the compression ratio. You would have been more excited to get experience in N/A tuning. Are you saying you saying my assumptions are wrong? that you would love a low output high performance N/A to start with? tell me im wrong!

Keeping the weight down? you do know that turbos and superchargers add weight vs its NA counterparts.

H8? what car currently has flat8? None that i know of.


I am a turbo guy myself, its easy to get addicted to boost, but i know for a fact that id ditch any turbo setup for a properly tuned high performance N/A.

Id like to spend more time on throttle with an N/A and concentrate on rotation, rather get distracted by boost pressure, spend less time on WOT,and spend time feathering the throttle during rotation.
