Hello all, my name is Chase Hubbell and i have a 91 tsi. I am new to the dsm game i have a 92 dodge stealth r/t and a 92 dodge stealth r/t tt. Well anyway i recently had some problems with my transmission and i went up and picked up a TRE stage 2.5. Well i pulled my motor and i plan on dropping in another. Not sure of the compression pretty sure its 8:1 or 9:1 i know its a big difference but i did not build the motor.

The motor has 0 miles on it and im just wondering what i should do to prime it. And will i have to tune it if its 9:1. I plan on getting dsmlink in 2 months. But please dont say stupid comments like make sure the timing is set and to change the oil. I know things like this im just not sure what oil to use or i have to do anything special. The motor has been sitting for about a year and a friend told me to spray some wd40 on the rings to make sure there not locked up.



Thanks and have a great day
Chase
