    not tryin to insult anybody but im not gonna set here and say im a shop whos tuned this and that or built all these cars but from the time ive been in the game i know that 10.1 compression with forced induction can equal disaster if is not tuned to the t and is not as reliable in my opinion if u want a daily driver slash weekend car id suggest stayin in the 8-9 compression ratios to give urself more leway or reliability for a dd just my two cents now if u tune a higher comp can it work yes do people dd them with high hp yes but ur takin a higher risk by goin that route and also ive heard of people running alittle longer rods because ive heard the length of the rods put stress on the block dont know if its true

    10:1 comp on boost is fine and can be reliable. It's all in the tuning.
