no...thats too high of compression....for a turbo you need to run sumwhere in the 8.8:1 range

 

Well, there has always been that debate drive like you stole it, or baby it.

Personally, have broken in a few engines, and by no means did I baby it. I didn't rev the **** **** out of it, but it wasn't driving like a nun.

If it was built properly, then you shouldn't have any problems with it.

If you run it harder at the start, it will seat the rings faster and lessen break in time needed.

Read THIS LINK solid information.

Suggestive reading.

 

ya i read that link before, but i wanted some neon fellas expiriances! Thanks alot!

 

Das thanks for the specs!

 

I've read that and still would like to see a comparison between the same engines showing it's better. Until then...I'll continue to beak-in my engines the ol' fashioned way.

 

now if you hoan the cylinders the right way you wont have to worry about all that, new engines have a finer hoan... whatever, yours isnt a new engine, its gonna have a rough hoan anyway if you do it yourself or take the block and have it done at a machine shop
