As ive said before i believe that someone can make 268kw on a stock block but running 16psi for anything but a "2 minute cross your fingures hope nothing die's Dyno run" is unbelievable. it would last less than 5 mins on a track.

story of this thread...
my comment more so was that ppl just repeat - cus theyre too lazy to read "that far back"
It's probably worth mentioning what CR OEM turbo cars run for reference. I know that VAG 1.8T 20v engines ran 9:1 or 9.5:1 from the factory depending on what car it was going in but, that would obviously be the OEM compromise on a mass produced turbo engine between reliability and drivability.
These engines a capable of reasonable power on std internals 400bhp+
I've got 1988 Renault 5 GT Turbo running a std carb blow through set up. The engine design is getting on for 50 yrs old now and that runs a std CR of 7.9:1 on it's 8v OHV non crossflow head.
The difference between the VAG engine and my old skool Renault lump is the advances in EFI technology and it's control, predominantly, ignition timing. The obvious other differences in head design have little to with a reliable CR.
Food for thought;)
