Well this could be engine suicide but It's getting bolted on anyways

Got this basically brand new for 110$ shipped

Yeah stock internals

Again, since the air is less dense and headers may reduce boost, I'd think this is closer to a 4# for most folks. I'm going to speak with my tuner tomorrow to weigh out the probability of joining the motor exploder club. Just want to hotrod this for the summer and then i don't care if the engine goes boom. I'll just get built afterwards. Couldn't pass up the price and ill need this later anyways.

Elevation at 5k isnt going to play that huge of a factor. It will some, but Mathematically the alt should only effect you about 6.5% at 12pounds of boost.

15.31 :1, and without altitude correction your compression ratio would be 16.35 :1.
