Meh, compression numbers indicate a worn motor. It doesn't mean you can't boost said worn motor. I wouldn't crank the wick up too high, but 6 psi is perfectly reasonable. That cylinder won't be as efficient as the other 3, no big deal.

You might have a blow-by issue though, so you'll have to make sure you have the crankcase vented properly so as not to pressurize it under a load.

I wouldn't bother rebuilding it unless you're plans involve tons of boost etc.

I had thought about dual catch cans I saw on turbo miata!

I'm think build a system that is safe to 12 and plan to run 8 psi all the time. So which turbo the t28 or t3?

Depends on what manifold is available. I haven't seen any for the T25 flange, only the T3.

I think the S14 SR turbo will work well for you. Its a GT2560R (people call it a t28). Its the same turbo as the S15 turbo (which people also call a t28) except for a little wastegate divider doodad. Its a ball bearing turbo and everything.
