I thought that wasn't too bad. The most common(and powerful) mi16 is 10.4:1

You really need a higher compression ratio to get the most out of nice cams, as we found to our detriment! :(

Still it is better than an m20 :giggle:

Not quite sure, but in the region of. Latest Audi S3 is 10:1 or even 10.5:1 and has 1bar of boost as standard :D

Diesels are 22:1 to 28:1 or higher winkeye
