[s-cars] Bottom-End...

I see that the 20V 7A is 10.3:1 where the 20VT AAN is 9.3:1

A VW Compression Ratio Article:

So I guess this tells me that if I am running 10.3:1 that:
-1) May have a detonation issue and need to adjust/retard the timing a
bit
-2) Heat could be an issue
-3) Engine Longevity could be an issue?
-4) Increase HP and bottom end torque?
-5) More potential then normal to bend stock rods w/ above increases?
Let the fun begin...

~FWIW, Audi still seems to be doing something like this with its "low"
vs. ~"high" output 1.8t motors. I.e., the high output apparently runs a
CR of ~8.9:1 and a K04 turbo to make 225hp/165kW & 280Nm/207 ft-lb while
the "low" ~output 1.8t runs a 9.5:1 CR with the smaller K03 to make
180bhp/132kW and ~235Nm/173 ft-lb. ~ ~Why, lower compression? ~ ~Mike ~
