The purpose and rules of that class is naturally aspirated. If they were going to put a turbo on it they certainly would not have went with such a high compression.

they would probably have a 7.1:1 or 7.9:1 if turbo

the lower compression you have, the more boost you can safetly run.

all of you Protege owners (3rd gens especially!) should be watching the Speed World Challenge Touring Car Championship on Speed Channel!

with that logic, why not setup 3.0:1 compression??? too many people think they need unnecessarily low compression....
