Back pressure or blow by maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just said it acted like an N/A bottom end whatever that means.By "blow" do u mean that as in when u check your oil cap it's got water on it?? Because mine doesn't have that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the tuners said it's safer running lower compression anyway... Either way, it's going no where fast without a new twin plate clutch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus it's proven and rated to 360 rwkwIf you want more they go all the way to a triple option 6. Better give them a call. Wouldn't gamble on the eBay stuff. You don't know what you're getting. Also remember if your flywheel is too light then you will need more revvs to take off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
