So Im in the process of rebuilding a d16z6. I think Im gonna get p29 pistons to raise my compression from 9.2:1 to 12.1. The rest of the internals are going to be stock for now. Im planning on upgrading to crower stage 2 cams in the future. Im just wondering if that's low enough to run 91 octane and not have any problems.

 

with enough timing taken out, sure.

Do you think 12:1 CR is low?

 

I thinks its pretty high. Thats why Im asking if it will be fine running it on 91 octane, cause it's the highest I can get over here. Should I go with a little less compression? If I get a thicker gasket It would probably be 11.7:1 but I prefer not to spend $60 to buy another one.
