9.3 to 1 compression ratio

Has anyone tried this high of compression? If so did you have to switch to high octane fuel?

gunna need some work to gain half a point of compression. it should require a higher octance fuel like 93 but with the timing advanced it may not like 87.

9.3:1 isnt all that high actually, so u should be safe...but getting it is tricky.
