Re: safest compression (Dark_Clouds)
From experience, anything below 13.0:1 if you don't consider aviation fuel to be street usable. Well, thats my $2.57 anyway...

Re: safest compression (EG6-SiR)
13:1 is pushing it.... That's using 93 octane as a minimum. I still think in some parts of Maryland, Sunoco has Race GT at the pump as a standard 96 octane. There's a place in Miami that has 99 octane, but it's expired av-gas. So I really don't know the exact octane reading.

Re: safest compression (B18C-EJ1)
Thanks for all the responses guys, but I'd have to say that B18C-EG1 is on the mark. But does anybody actually ever ran 11.5 compression on the street? If so then how does it run? I'm not sure but I think the Integra Type R runs 11.6 compression? So I guess it's okay. But correct me if I'm wrong.

Re: safest compression (Dark_Clouds)
im actually running on the street in the high 12's compression area....no one really knows my compression but safe to say its about 12.5+.....i do run Cam2 normally
(race fuel 100 octane) but when i cant git to it i use 93 and 94 if theres a sunoco nearby...this is my second high compression motor and ive never had a problem with the octane levels....
