Its all in the tune. Get a good tuner and it can be done at moderate levels

It can be done but it is a little to far on the wild side for me. Would not want to waste so much money on something that could go at any time.

I would say it is all about the tuning. If you are not comfortable with tuning and not always alert to slight changes (weather, heatsoak, etc..) everytime you drive, I suggest to stay on the safe side and go with a lower CR I am also running Sunoco 94oct pump gas.
