Hi all,
Still researching into the various parts I will be looking to get at some point for my Project Autounion build, due to the engine power aim being at 520bhp I wanted to ask advice on compression ratio. I know that aftermarket pistons usually come with differing CR but wanted to ask if its worth getting pistons to create a lower CR for safety or is stock CR ok?
I guess I could simply look to get stock CR pistons and run a slightly thicker head gasket to lower the CR if there is less safety margin in the future. I do plan to run water/meth injection and would have the S4 injectors to ensure that the engine remains safe.
Just wondering what others have done, thinking stock CR is the most common route though.
