You may have to lower the compressionrate with another headgasket.
Tuning is more than bolting on pieces.

oh for sure, I completely agree that compression will be too high for too much boost. Ive been told I will be able to run 0.5Bar boost at the highest with very high octane fuel, so I will have to have a headgasket made to lower the compression ratio a little bit.

Hi.
Fitting a thicker gasket or a shim increases the distance between camshaft pulley and crank pulley, this alters the valve timing so a camshaft vernier pulley is a must to get the valve timing correct.

Hi, thank you again for the reply.
Wow, havent even thought about that "little" part. I am glad Ive joined this forum, as Im learning every time something new and interesting.
And here all I was really worried about was getting my hands on an exhaust manifold for the turbo... hahaha. It does seem to me as though I will have to go the custom route with that part...
