Default Steve/anyone: compression ratios>
So given my problem, I'm looking on ECS' site, and they have a short block for an AWP engine w/9.2:1 compression ratio. What gives - I thought my 180 had a 9.5:1 ratio, and 225's were 9:1. Comments?<ul><li><a href="http://www.ecstuning.com/stage/edpd/pagebuild_v2.cgi?make=Audi&amp;engine=180HP&amp;mo del=TT&amp;submodel=FWD&amp;category=Engine">http://www.ecstuning.com/stage/edpd/pagebuild_v2.cgi?make=Audi&amp;engine=180HP&amp;mo del=TT&amp;submo

Default Dunno......9.5 for the 180....>
9.0 for the 225. Probably to give a little more headroom for more boost..

Default Ko4's are easy and cheap...>>
GT28's gonna take some programming and stuff. A bit more complicated (but a better turbo.) There's a reason APR gets the big bucks for stage 3...

Art Vandellay would be the one to ask on the KO4...He's done a nice install write-up...
