Lower compression = lower power without boost.
Then you have to tune it twice which can get expensive. I paid $2200 for tuning and parts for my Audi motor. Seems to me adding the turbo now will be cheaper and less work in the long run. |

You have to run a different computer, exhaust and it will be a low compression dog. |
