Re: Compression decreasing block on MC turbo engines...

<< On the MC turbo engines Audi decreased the compression ratio from
 9.2:1 (??) to 7.8:1 by using a spacer between the engine block and the
 head.  >>

Where did you get that idea from??  The Mc engine uses different pistons than
the other five cyclinder motors..  If the block was taller longer timing
belts would be needed for the turbos and that ain't true...
