Need help - turbo LS compression ratio’s
Hi guys, I need help with which compression ratio to go with in my turbo ls 6.0 build. I’m looking at 2 wiseco pistons that have a 9:3:1 & 10:1:1 ratio? I’ll have forged rods & pistons- stock crank. Bored .005. LS3 821 heads ported & polished. Sheet metal intake, 102 TB. Holly EFI. Th400 trans, trans brake, 3800 stall, 3:23 gear. Any input would greatly help! I did search and try to find my answers in the forums but “V6 turbo’s” were all I could find. Thanks

Probably not the best place to ask. There are a lot of LS only websites out there. Do you know who will tune your car? If so talk to them, They know what combinations work and what ones do not. Its not like the old day when a Turbo engine had to be built a certain way, With the adjustability in a modern fuel injection system any engine can be made to work with a turbo. Guys are pulling 6.0s out of old work trucks with 250,000+ miles on them and hitting 1000 HP on dynos with all the junk yard parts in there. .
