Well, I'm running about 8.7:1 and the car is a monster at 15 psi. Rear end breaks loose at 12 psi when it hits vtec in 2nd gear. I take it easy in first because the power is too much. Of course this all depends on the setup (turbo type, manifold, hedwork, etc.).

i had them do 8;1 because i want to run 20psi on a regular basis.

the s2k is basicly a little fun car that i will drive maybe 75 miles a week with. so it might as well be a verry fun 75 miles.

I was getting ready to say, I plan on running 20lbs daily on my car and that's with the 9.5:1's.
