alright i still have questions with the other post but since i dont know the answer to the question in which i have yet.

what do you guys recommend me doing to increase my hp/trq while my engine is dismantle at this point. keep in mind i gotta still meet california smog rules. i heard that i can bore out my block for larger pistons and as long as i dont touch the crans ill be okay with the carb rules, i guess i could look into carb legal crans too. just want to know what kinda of things are i can go to guys

That doesnt make sense, any engine n/a or not creates vaccum when the pistons are moving down drawing in air. High compression would help turbo lag since you'll have better exhaust pressure to get the turbine moving. But I would think displacement has the most effect on turbo lag since the smaller an engine the less exhaust pressure it has to utilize.

I didn't say high compression wouldn't help turbo lag but the difference is trivial and it's dangerous to your engine. When you have a turbo'd car- with no boost pressure it will run MUCH worse than it would NA simply because it has to go through many more feet of intake piping- past a nonspinning turbo, and then into the manifold. It's actually really not the length of the piping, but the amount of curves and therefore surface area. Finally, compression point is almost moot, since the vacuum is there and air can't easily GET to the engine- this is turbo lag.
