zaathur151 Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 I'm building my lq9 and I have a set of (ls6) 243 cast heads ready to be put on for 10:9.1 compression then I decided to boost and bought a trick turbo kit is this possible with that compression, I will be running ls9 head gaskets and head studs?

AKSSS Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 Anything is possible. But you have many thing to decide. Fuel type and octane, how much boost and more. But most important with that compression and boost is going to be your tune. You will be very limited on boost levels with pump gas at that cr. I personally wouldn't run a daily driver car with that compression and boost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to make up your mind for yourself. A lot of people would run that setup on the street all day long. As I said there is lots of questions. Do you have e85 available to you?

12'SROCK Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 It's been done before countless times. Keep in mind stock ls2 come with that compression stock and are supercharged as well as ls7 that's at 11.0. To each their own. I'd do it if I were you.

idahoBLKss Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 Depends on how much boost and what fuel your running. Don't be afraid of compression but the more boost you want to run the better the fuel your going to need. I'd say rock it it will be no slouch out of boost that's for sure lol.
