cheap way to higher cr. Hope you have an adjustable cam gear too. Piston's are the best way to raise compression.

i have a generic camgear... im sure they are all the same

i did not run my car at the track before.. but i would imagine it would have been slow... stock 6th gen dx's run high 16's, 17s, and mine would be slower cuz i got a/c and other things
