10:1 plus a turbo is not impossible, nor unheard of. I'd think you'd want a full standalone with a great tune/tuner though. But, I think you are just running a GTX ecu?

the bumper i believe is a andy front bumper i found the bumper in the jy one day on a 2ndgen escort but the 1.9l mode and i have the 2nd gen gt 1.8l bp in mine so i pick it up for 40 dollers at the jy spent 10 dollers on sand paper and bondo and paint and a little bit of time still got to weld some brackets onto the front mounting pices to finish mounting it cause i got it on but it had a half inch gap and wasent flush and that was my first tyme trying to mount the bumper
right now im going with a vj-11 to break in the engine but awaiting my t3/t4 exhaust mani to arive for after the engine is broke in i still have more parts just was being lazy on taking pixs since im not at that stage yet and awaiting my arp head bolt kit
thats the same front bumper i had on my 323
its a blackwidow front i had to cut the **** outta it to fit it on my 323 since i took it from a acura legend1st 323 - wrecked - RIP
2nd 323 - stolen - RIP
3rd 323 - daily driver
