yes there would be an issue mate!lol, if u stick with the high comp pistons it'll blow summit out the block in seconds!lol
n/a uses high comp as theres a limit to the mass of air you can get into the engine, so the higher comp means this is compensated for by compressing it more in the cylinders for more bang!hence more power!
forced induction is just that, us turbo boys get one hell of alot more air into our engines so we dont need to compress it as much to get the power from it as theres more there!which is why its pants off boost as the engine has essentially lost power untill the turbo kicks in!
