Not really one to get you right there but Wiseco has a -3.2cc relief piston that will get you around 9.8:1 w/ a factory gasket or a -11cc dish piston that will put you at 9:1 with a factory gasket. You might be able to run a thinner gasket or mill the heads a bit with this one to get you where you want to be. Let me know if you have any other questions!

Thanks!

thanks for the fast response. do you think i can get away with 17-19psi with 9.8:1 and a methanol kit with a gt88 turbo, or would i be better off at 9.1:1? thanks
