There are a couple issues with low compression, the biggest issue is that it makes the engine a complete dog out of boost. These engines dont make squat for power as it is NA, dropping compression and sticking in an aftermarket cam will make that even worse driving around. It's one thing
in a drag only car with a loose converter and a brake, but it sure sucks on the street.
Just leave the bottom end how it is and run e85 or just hit it with meth.

Why would you want to bring compression down?

I plan on driving the car often, and the thing with E85 is, it's not too common in my area. With meth, is there an easy way to run it only when higher power is needed, and not run it while just driving down the street?

Would the AEM meth kit zzp sells be a good option?

Sounds good on paper, but I've never personally run one so I can't comment specifically.
The kit I run on my vette is an Alkycontrol, but that's just because theyve got a lot of support for that community.
