I did mine 9:1 and this was before I ever new I wanted to do e85. On 91 I'm only good to around 570rw and with e85 we stopped at 800 since the turbo housing was about there anyway. The reasoning for the lower compression i was told was to be able to run the turbos in a better efficiency range. I'm not a builder or car expert but at the time it seemed to make sense. This was just the choice I made at the time with the turbos I'm using. I have wondered myself if I would have been better off on 10:1. I'm not worried about it as I can boost the $&@! Out of it and get however much power I needed. I only wanted 600rw on pump gas and then I fell short so added water meth kit but it only added 100whp so then I ditched the meth and ran e85. Run whatever compression that will allow your turbos to run in the range they are most efficient. I would say that's where u want to be .
