This was THE reason Oldsmobile chose to use a high CR back in 62, low rpm throttle response.
I must point out that they did not just bolt a turbo to their 10.25:1 four barrel carb engine. The turbo engine received beefier main bearing caps, pistons with thicker crowns, hardened exhaust valves, higher grade rod bearings, higher flow fuel pump, different ignition coil, and of course a one-of-a-kind carburetor that is harder than hell to find parts for.
