Default who runnin 12:5.1 compression-dailydriver

this be for gsr b18c motor-dailydriver-will be resleeved-biggerbore pistons-itr cams with futre upgrade later, usaul i/h/e camgears,fuel reg, etc.

i emailed Importbuilder, i ask max compression on 93 pumpgas(reccomendation)he say 12.5:1 can be done, with above setup and make good pwr. I hear good things from IB, although it seems a little high to me, ive read some posts were some people are running this compression, so i trust theyre judgement.

Now i would need to keep it reliable and run safely(no detonation)im thinkng low temp thermostat-radiator-redline waterwetter-keep it cool, proper tuning- in fact if i need it, which it looks like and ib says yes- hondata for maximun tuning. Am i on somewhat of the right track or a little overkill? or maybe a lower compression be advisable?

thats why i wanna hear from people actaully running this compression-any suggestions or recommendations be welcome.
thanx
