M7 big bore with turbo, expert advice welcome

F
06 M7 with speedwerx M8 cylinders, 14:1 compression head. Installing a aero 53 running 10 pounds boost. V-force 3 reeds, stock pipe. Stock M7 gearing. Here's a few questions.

1. Will it be o.k. with 14:1 compression? I'll run 110 octane.
2. V-force3 reeds work?
3. Can I use mesh side vents?
4. Do I need to frogskin every opening? Already have the front done.

Any advice is welcome. Thanks

1. Stock compression with a little squish taken out is preferred. I'm not sure if 110 at what ever your elevation is good. or an aero53 at 10 is good...
2. No they will break, use stock reeds or double stack. Or ovs new reed stopper.
3. Sure
4. Don't need to do anything you don't want to...


Now for expert opinion your seeking... :lol:
1. Stock compression or slightly dropped. Use stock cat pistons. Did speedwerx alter the cyclinders at all? Port timing etc...
2. I'm not an expert...
 
Get that head relieved to around 12 to 1 compression.

V force 3 will not work. Use stock or TDR reeds.

Don't need frogskins everywhere.

Yes you can use mesh sidevents.
 
call speedwerx and see it the port timing will work with a turbo and get the head milled im not sure you could get high enough octane at sany elevation for a 14-1 head under 10lbs of boost.Talk to speedwerx im sure they can handle the head for you as well
