RX8 compression numbers with a turbo kit

Hi, will compression tests show lower numbers if a turbo kit is installed? If yes, how much lower?

Yes .....the numbers will be lower by 10% due to the fact that he Renesis really doesn't want a turbo on it .

If you put 2 on they counteract each other and compression will stay the same.
