Any plans to reply to my last post, or is it too rational for you to wrap your head around?
WTF you smoking? The whole purpose of forced induction is to get more oxygen into the cylinder so you can burn more gas. The higher the intake preassure the more O2 in the charge per unit volume(displacement). So at the same pressure with the the same set up the larger displacement engine will be able to burn more fuel and make more power.
BTW: Displacement of an engine is fixed by the choice of bore and stroke when it is assembled. Changing the charge density does not change the displacement of the engine. It just changes the cylinder preasure when the gas/air mixture is compressed.

I'm that good.
Dammit, reading comprehension fail. I assumed the 1.6L dyno Ray posted was the first one in red, oh well. I forgot Ray lives in a magical word where his turbo makes more power per psi than any other turbo miata on the planet.
All my content is still valid, I just would have went at this a different way.

I have 900 cubic inches at 20:1 CR running 42 psi of boost, does that count? You guys are fun.

And the guy would be spending more for his build than the 1.6l. The 1.6l could get some cams and then have even more top-end power. Too bad they don't have any good cams for a 1.8l, right? So I guess as far as preferred heads goes, a 1.6l would be the way to go if you wanted to get lots of lift and flow, even compared to a 99 head.
You want a great example for CR, boost, and power?
4G63 6-bolt – 7.8:1CR Stock 8psi
Rated power – 195hp
4G63 7-bolt – 8.5:1CR Stock 10psi
Rated power – 210hp
Is that a good enough comparison for compression ratios? And the 2G has a SMALLER turbo than the 1G.

No suprise the one with higher CR and more boost is making more power. What's your point?
