High Compression Question
Im in the market for 11:1 Pistons and light weight rods. My question is, would the car need to be tuned in any way to run such high compression? Would the stock tune function erratically? Would i need to change my spark plugs or timing?
(Maybe better in tech forum?)

11:1 is a big change from stock. You will definitely want to get it tuned or you will be buying more than just new pistons and rods.
