talk to tuff,same vincent and some of the others on the bullet side,,seems they all been droping a point or more when there shooting the 500-700 shots to have a lil bigger of a tuning window..they can make up the 10-20hp lost from that with lil bit more juice and still have a better tunning window.

The margin of compression that most LTx engines are built with is like 9:1-11/12:1 so with that your not going to see a huge gain compression wise in that range.
A 'real' NX engine is going to be high like 13:5+ and built directly, soley and only for the hose.
Like FASTFATBOY said, you are splitting hairs on a the ring package. I have a hellfire setup in my car, I don't remember offhand what the specs are but it should be fine for driving NA and on the gun. I personally dont care about a small hp loss from a well setup engine either.

Now that I am confused how to do thing rings. Should I do top Hellfire rings and gapless second rings? or No?
Also I will be spraying most of the time at the track. If anyone needs to know this.
