How much more in 'seat of the pants' terms ? In WV I find myself wanting more.

Haven't noticed any additional engine braking with the 330. You could gear down if you have not done so.

Edit :I see you have a 13t. never mind.

Marvin said the piston they use is a 12.5:1, I think the stock is 11 something. I figured that at least would give some more engine braking. Guess not !

I didn't actually check, but Kustom Kraft told me it would be the same as stock. 11:1 compression.
