are you talking WOT or crusing? crusing run a 14.7 at wot you should be runing 11.6 - 12.3:1 anything higher then 12.3 is not good. on a naturally aspirated engine 1.8 would be fine but on a turbo or supercharged engine its not good. Run a 11.7 and call it good.

Why would that be? Everything I have read says 11.7 on a turbo or supercharged car.
