Default RE: compression

Welcome to the forum mickeyp, enjoy your stay,hope we might be able to help. Boost, on a diesel engine, boost with high compression, on a gas engine, generally high boost, low compression. What are you trying to boost? If you have high boost on a high compression gas engine, your fuel octane will need to be a lot better than pump gas. Such as a formula 1 engine, boost is up to 35-45 psi, and the engine produces up to 800 hp.(engines are short in life ) running on methanol fuel
