If your going with a forced induction (blower) your going to want to go with lower compression. The higher compression you go in a regular motor the higher octane gas you will have to run 10:1 is alright for premium unleaded. With the higher compression your also want to get your timing tunned well. Otherwise you start causing detonation and blowing holes through your pistons. Which is not fun. Try to stay away for the detonation mixture of high compression and low octane.
