[QUOTE="Mb3492, post: 14213514, member: 151091"] To OP, sorry for your bad experience and hopefully things don't hit your wallet hard. As far as CR, 9.5:1 is definitely your choice. There is a reason ford racing says "supercharger ready" I also went through a "Bad" experience with my 11' 5.0. Boosted 8# with procharger and a bad "local" dyno that didn't have the experience and pushed the envelop. Next, I would like to explain my experiences... I had my engine built by L&M engines (Michael Rauscher) who was adamant about 9.5:1 CR for a boosted coyote. Now I will say this about all this "Tuner" crap going on. I listened to a race engine builder with over 30 years experience, not a tuner. The lower compression ratio is ALOT safer. One bad tank of gas on 11:1 boosted on the edge and that's it. Why do you think Ford made a supercharger aluminator and an na aluminator ??? Because they don't know what they are doing, right? Next, I would like to comment on Beefcake and Lund tuning.
