A high CR engine with a High DCR would have timing limitations but make more power with less timing.... Because of the build up of heat caused by the CR and DCR it would be prone to detonation this is where higher octane comes into play. A low CR engine is more forgiving on the timing meaning it could run more because it would produce less heat thus less prone to detonation but it would make less power...

This all makes sense...I guess it can be summed up as compression makes more power than timing (all things being equal and speaking generally and not technically). As always, the combo has to be perfectly matched or the point is mute...This sound right?

I try to think of it in terms of like cylinder pressure. But I dont think thats completely right. But the more pressure the more prone to detonate?
