for the most part low comp. is used in turbo/ forced induction setups and high comp. is used in all motor setups.

ZC pistons out of a 88-89 INtegra will yield 12 to 1 CR with everything else left stock

Well Ok.. I change the compression. but how will the motor act?? can you get more HP just by lowering the comp. or does it need a turbo?? (not my plan, i go for NA!!)

to raise the hp NA, you'd want to raise the compression.
