    Lowering cr

    Hello
    Found this on the www

    Anyone have some good or bad to say about it ?

    I would lile to stay on stock pistons but not at all a must
    What is the best way to do it?
    If doing piston im thinking might *** well go 83mm?

    If you use a thicker gasket than stock like you posted, and don't touch the height head, you may use a regulable cam pulley

    All depends how much you want lower the CR for your power goal, boost, turbo...I saw on the advertisement 8,24:1, and this is low

    You can buy low compression pistons with stock bore...83mm it's the head wasket limit

      Just skim the crown of the stock Pistons. You dont need to remove much. I posted a compression ration calculator on the forum you can use to work it out

        It was to leave the pistons stock and dont take them out
        Buttom was done 8 k km
        And i dont want to get new bolts and parts for that again ☺
        I know the former owner did use arp 2000 bolt
        Can they be reused for head ?
        I was thining of going down to 8:1 tho i have read that our engine will be more than happy with that ?
        If using a bigger bore like 83 how much wil that change the cc of the engine?

          You don't want to change the pistons...but then talk about changing the bore?! Have I missed something?

            Haha sry for the cofusing
            The bigger bore was just an idea ☺ not the plan. Im just getting ideas for what to do or not do. Doea that make sence?
            If going 82 83 bore with stock stroke isen changig much for the displacement then im not going to use bigger bore.

                Doing a 82.5 piston with stock stroke wil make it a 2.3l
                But dont know if it is worth it.?
                Is there any down side to just using thicker hg?

                      If you mean 500-600 hp at the wheels a 3076 will be a bit small I think. 3582 if staying with Garrett would be better.

                          35 will add to much lag for my taste and for the daily driven car that it is
                          Maybe if i end up getting t

                            Here is my CR calculator.
                            You would need to skim 1.1mm off the stock pistons to get around 8.5:1 without really affecting the crown material thickness of the pistons.
                            This will be fine for 500hp on pump fuel.

                            If you have access to E85 in Denmark then just modify your fuel system to suit the requirements and leave CR alone.
