I know that the 3s-ge engine has a higher compression ratio than the 3s-gte (which I guess means that the pistons' head are thiner right?), but what does it change so that we can't (or shall not) turbocharge the 3s-ge?
Is it because it would (I don't know) be too much compressed exhaust gases for the turbo to hold? BTW: what does the last number in the compression ratio mean? (Like in 10:3:1) This post has been edited by dudeofchaos: Jun 26, 2011 - 10:51 PM |

I think we all GET that boosting on a high compression engine is infact UNWISE. But the number one thing we all do when boosting an engine to high output is FORGED PISTONS. Now if we stick a pair of 9.0:1 compression CPs or Wiseco's in there would a 3s-ge(T) handle a ct20 if we slap a 3s-gte exhaust manifold and works?
