Talk to your tuner. But. With the efficient cylinder head the S2000 has. 9.7:1 - 10:1 is fine with the proper tuning. Good luck with your build

I say keep the compression up and run water/meth. My opinion.

Honestly. No reason to. You're throwing another part in the mix that can potentially fail. I recommend meth injection to people who don't have 93 octane available. Over in Bahrain the pump gas is horrible. When the gasoline leaves BAPCO's lab, it's 95 ron which is 91 AKI (USA RATING). Then it goes to the gas stations and stays in the strorage tanks for while, so with heat/time the additives in the gasoline evaporate, causing the gasoline to degrade to a lower octane rating. If anything. Spend extra money on the fuel system. And if E85 is available. Go that route.
