    Default boosting a ITR

    Just want to see what people on IA would say if you had a ITR...would you go boost or stay all motor...i know most of the people would say it's stupid to boost a c5 and to get a c1 if you want boost... but what's the difference??? i know the cr is higher than the other and you can only run about 7psi or so on the c5..so lmk what you think..and does anyone on here have a boosted ITR..just want to see what kind of number they making..plus i did some research but it didn't help me as much...Thanks

    I've seen boosted ITR, they had to drop their compression for higher boost though. I think you should get a c1 instead like you said and give me that c5. It'll work out better for the both of us...haha

    itr piston rings are weaker than the gsr. high compression and weaker rings dont mix well with forced induction

    my friend has been running on his boosted ITR for 3 years. PM him on here , BLACK R

    you can do 250whp easily with a good tune and have no probles. dont be scared of it, the difference in compression is only half a point between GSR an ITR. it just has to be tuned carefully
