Adjustable compression would be desirable wouldn't it? Have some nice 10:1
down low and then as the big turbo winds up the compression would
automatically drop. How do the modern engines do this? Tilt the head or
something.
What if you found somewhere to fit another smaller piston into the cylinder
that slides in and out to adjust compression?
