Turbo N/A S5??

Has anyone installed the S5 turbo on the N/A S5 motor. Someone told me the compression is to high.

It generally isn't the greatest idea to turbo an N/A motor. Why don't you just spend the extra $'s and drop in a rebuilt TII motor and drive train?

The N/A motor is built the same as the turbo motor plus it has better port timing and higher compresion. I'd say based on your number of post you should do some research before you post. Shoot Aron Cake a PM and ask him about his N/A turbo S4.

Anyone else that knows what they are talking about.

You typically want lower compression when you boost a car...Just save up and buy a J-Spec.

Please read the FAQ. There is probably more information about this then any other topic on this forum.
