Default staying in emissions

was wondering if anyone knew what compression ratio would be best to stay within emissions standerds? i was thinking going to wisco 10.0:1 or 9.5:1, most likely 10.0:1 to handle just a tad more boost. *looking to throw 15-20psi on the gt2554R for a small "aww" factor*.

also, wondering what that small change would do to mileage compared to stock compression with normal boosting. i found some upgrade cam shafts, valves and springs to handle the boost aswell so i'm just wondering about the pistons and whatnot.

... i already stated they were for honda motors "nevermind, that page is dumb, lists the same parts for very other car and thier all honda parts.". i will be calling them tomorrow though to see if they actualy have anything instead of listing the same parts on every car catigory...

you will find the same cam shafts are listed for just about ever other make/model of car, they are all the same thing. so i will ask them tomorrow.

skunk would never make cams for a 1nz...they tend to always stick more with the K series and B series motor products...Im actually shocked they even made something for the tC....lets put it this way, if skunk wont make cams for my tsx and that has the K24, then there never gonna do it for the 1nz. There really isnt much of a need for new cams when you can get regrinds from crower to your own specs
