I would assume that the guys at AFR should know what they are talking about. And just from my general knowledge that sounds about right. 10.5:1 compression is perfect for the street too. Looks like a great combo. I would say going from 9:1 to 10.5:1 should yeild you about 35hp. They say about 25hp per point of compression, or so I've read.
