            Hmmm, I stand corrected. Can't argue with black and white.

                Just 3 cents here.
                ur right, but those are the turbo motors... the n/a version a prot came with is at 9.0:1

                  I previously installed the S-AFC on my GTX motor but needs a dyno to tune it. It's quite expensive here in Malaysia for a dyno tune so I sold it and got a 1st gen AFC w/ 5 buttons.

                  Maybe you guys over there have an easier access to dyno at a cheaper price.

Id probably just run a S AFC until i can afford a haltech or another EMS. Piping, intercooler, bov. I can get a sparco fmic from a friend also, the bov, probably a turboxs or something. and piping, id just fab up my own. Does that sound doeable????

                        He was talking about putting a turbo on his existing motor. Which is the NA BP. It has 9:1 compression pistons.
