I would not go over 11:1 compression on 91 octane, We will be tuning this car via ecu flash, And the customer was not against mixing fuel if need to .

Looks nice, kinda off topic but do you guys make the 3.8L kit for the HR? And if so are you still able to twin turbo and tune it efficently?

so you can get CARB certified with a motor swap from a completely different car? How is that even possible? or you mean just pass inspection?

looking sweet though as usual!

As long as you are upgrading to a newer year and model (with all it's emissions system and engine control) you can go through a process that they will certify the car with the new system and get though the certification process .

It is not easy but 100% possible .

Great! Really interested on the outcome of this project as it will help me decide which stroker kit to put in my car for a NA application.
