You have any links to those higher horsepower turbos?

There is no set amount, just totally based on the block condition and amount of abuse it has seen and how much it takes to clean up the deck surface completely. Also, keep in mind that many times your pistons will also need to be cut to adjust each cylinder to get the desired deck height and not just the block. So you can get the deck straight and square, and check your pistons deck height and adjust them for the desired compression you want. Too many people forget or just don't know that decking the block is only just one step of several that is required in achieving the correct deck height for their combo.
