Well worth posting and should somehow be in the how too. I like the point that experience from actual testing, supersedes theory. Thanks, Trevor.

Re: And you wonder why we break ring lands @ boost
Wow, my engine @ 14PSI has an effective compression ratio of 19:1
and my truck's is close to 40:1 (diesel) 17:1 compression ratio + 16psi (I'm pretty sure it's 16psi, I could be wrong, I've never put a boost gauge on it...)

Bill... In the case of me breaking riong lands... That was audible detonation that killed that motor. I am running more timing now than I was then with just as much boost, now that my fuel tables are more stable and I have an engine management system worth 2 craps

Kia ora Tom,
Ka pai, but are you not seriously negligent, through not taking expert advice and not fitting water injection. : Nga mihi nui , Trevor
