Re: High Compression Question..
I'm sure you'll be fine. I had some pistons in a NA LS motor a couple years back that were domed so high up, they ended up being 13:1 pistons. Motor ping'd some on hot summer days. It made 190 137. Crower 404'd (degree'd) hi compression B18b1(nonvtec) with a RMF header.
The motor is merely a pump, all the power is in the head. So get the head right, get a correct set of cams and a nice header.
My setup picked up 15whp PEAK over a JDM ITR header to a DTR/Six-Sigma Racing header. Midrange came up crucially too.
If it's a street car, I HIGHLY recommend Skunk2 Tuner 2s. I made 230 on them, need more cam though , and it idles perfectly.. and my ac blows cold
