    Yea but that wont be my track toy. The Corsica is going to remain my track toy but with a different idea in mind for engine and drive train. All will be decided later and put in its own topic if I decide to do what I want

      Higher stall is going to make you spin even more because its going to dump you further into your powerband... You need slicks with your setup.

      And you dont need compression you have boost... 9.15:1 is enough for what you want to do.

        More compression+less boost=better power then less compression+more boost

        But yes I do have boost and that why its getting upped to 12 either this weekend or next. Im working on getting slicks. Found a brand new set for my 14 for $330. Still going to suck with an open diff though

          I wouldn't worry about the compression loner, you are turbo and it's a small amount less than stock. You have turbo as the power adder. N/A needs every bit of compression to make power.

            I know. Its the least of my worries. I only plan to do that when/if I ever pull the engine apart again to do the bottom end

              Yeah, I talked to a few guys, such as Ben about what heads to go when I go through and build a engine for mine. The 3400 ported heads are the best for boostage.

              My friend just put a 4k yank stall in his T/A. Took his 13.99 ET to 14.1...
