      I dont get it? is this showing L26's are a better bottom end and making more power? the setups arent all the same?

      1996 3800 Camaro - 13.43 @ 100.77 mph

        Different cams, different heads, different turbo, different transmission gear ratios...but all L36/26 bottom.

        I'm just saying that they make power and there's no point putting low compression pistons in your L36 and no need for rods and crank etc. Much cheaper to just buy a junkyard L26 and go from there.

        All those cars were tuned by cartuning with the exception of the first one.

            Why does the file folder say Jordan_GTP? Im going out on a limb here, but if its a turbo GTP, my guess would be that its either an L67 or L32. If it isn't a GTP, why bother saving the file under that name? Curious....

                You had a turbo car, would you recommend a stock L36/L26 CR for high amounts of boost?

                  Because the car is a 2004 Comp G.

                  Original motor popped, put in a built motor, chucked a piston and tossed a valve. Then it was on to a stock L26. Motor has been fine since.

                  The graph is funny because of where it starts, and because it's on a Dynapack with lots of load applied.

                  I have a turbo car and I run an L26. It's not about boost, it's about overall HP goals. There is no point with lower compression unless you plan on making over 600+whp, and even then it should be a good amount more.
