Default general compression ?

Curiosity- Lets say I put A6 pistons into my d16y8, I think that brings it to 12:1. Is there anything else I will need to upgrade to deal with the higher compression? Stock is @ 9.2:1 I believe.

i dont think the A6 pistons bring the compression up that much. but they will bring it up a notch
