my original intention was to increase the comp to 11.5:1 and leave it N/A, but after having done a recent HG replacement on an MR2 turbo, I really want a turbo for those time when I do want to "get on it" so I will be leaving the CR approx the same as stock.

Since your increasing engine size/power, I think it would be a good thing to look into upping your gearing a bit to put more load on the engine which should make it run more efficient too.

I would love to up the gearing a bit, but in the honda/acura world, my tranny is one of the longer gear ratios, so I'm stuck with with over-sized tires as my only affordable option, and I've yet to find anything LRR that will increase my Diameter while keeping the tread width reasonable (205/55/16 is the recommended stock size, though the PO installed some performance 215/50/16's on there which is what I am currently running)
