corrado_sunderland 0 Posted December 28, 2007 well as few people may already kno the jet ive aquired is in a sorry state these days and as i now gettin full bottom end and charger rebuild i gunna have to get head skimmed too i suspect but ive already purchased a racing spec HG and i was curious what the slight up in compression would do towards the charger i.e. affect performance in which case id have to order thicker HG and just disregard this one. regards mick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Toad 0 Posted December 28, 2007 If the compression ratio ends up too high you will damage the engine most likely, probably by melting pistons or bending conrods. Dunno quite how high you can push it tbh... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
corrado_sunderland 0 Posted December 28, 2007 the head hasnt been skimmed previous and will only recieve the minumum amount if it does get a skim as car hasnt been overheating so i doubt it warped anywa, so i just hoping that will be ok as ive never really had forced induction before regards mick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
