compression to high for a blower???
what would be a safe compression ratio for a blower on a street driven car? my GTA has 10.5:1 is this too high or i be better off just spraying it?

to have a serious amount of boost that compression is way too high. now if we are talking like a 5-6 PSI of INTERCOOLED boost setup that can be done easilly. But thats still a pretty expensive investment for only 5-6 PSI;
your probably better off using spray until you can lower your compression to about 9.5:1 or lower, then you can run alot more boost (intercooled) and make a ton more power.
