:wavey:To:TS tumpang to ask ..
sifu, i plan to bot the new myvi 1.5 in future... the engine compression is 10:1, it is consider high to boost at max 0.5 bar? will i need to reduce the compression or change any internal parts? acutally im expecting a low safe boost or soft turbo for the car, daily driven and suit for long distance drive and wish after bot it will be as easy to maintain just like an normal auto gear NA car.. im not plan for racing but just expect slightly more torque with some nice bov sound...
Woah..10.1 for a turbo plus DVVT and dare to boost at 0.5..haha...
Becareful..that is a risk you're going to take..What if the fuel is lean..dead and gone...
One thing i recommend the compression ratio to be 8.2..Why?
-First,it is much safer...
-Second,you want to go high rev until 7000 RPM also wont be a problem,
-Third,wear and tear will be lesser.It'll be very reliable.
-Fourth,Might sound a bit selfish,but it'll be easier for us to tune..HAHAHA...
High compression cars is hard for us to tune...honest...
Engine transplant might work as well...Perhaps may cost lesser...But if you love to combine DVVT with turbo..its up to you..
You do know why factory don't set the boost higher right?
It's because they know it'll affect the reliability. The GTO i'm driving now could be boost up and also the compression could be increase,but of course the price is the reliability of the car. It'll go way beyond suck.

Forget the N16. If you insist on a Sentra at the very least get the 1.8.
There's a very very fine line between performance and comfort. You can't have both. Once you do find the balance, eventually you'll want more power and more and more and more...
You're a HP maniac aren't you izso...hahaha....
