I don't see why not, as long as it's tuned correctly.

it's an option I've been considering... less drama w/ all motor, LT headers and a cut out

Mine is around there as well. I run 62cc chambered heads. Not optimal by any means, but it will still make some power. Probably down 5% in power compared to if it were 10-1.

i do like it, but i'm finding that paying to play is getting more difficult with the limited income i have... since the turbo, the car has spend more time on jack stands then on the road... selling the turbo is up in the air, i'm not set on doing anything right now just yet. was wondering about the all motor on 9;1 was all

You could always bolt on a Procharger down the road.

i think I'd stick with all motor... no extra moving parts to worry about
