How do you stop a Ford Focus from pinging?
Run a tank of high octane through it or add a bottle of octane boost, I did this 4 months ago and have been able to run 87 octane in it and the ping has not returned yet.

Can a Supercharger be put on a High Compression Engine?
You can put controlling heat is so much harder. Usually on a high compression engine you want to run less boost. You can also get away with running more boost if you go with higher octane gas. This will help control heat and fight detonation. Thank you, From www.SuperchargersOnline.com
