Thanks Kial! Are you on stock cams? What do the dotted lines represent?...previous tune? Would you mind giving a roigh cost for your F24C setup with labor (assuming you did not build it yourself)? Thank you.
I'm in cali so need to run in 91 octane. What's the highest CR to safely run on 91 considering it hits triple digit temps in the summer here?

I used to own a Boxster S. One of the things that turned me off that car was that building an engine was like putting together a ship in a bottle. I have built several engines myself (Datsun, Toyota), and building a Porsche engine was in no way accessible to me without thousands of dollars (more) worth of tools and specialized training.
German engineering may have its benefits, but I'll take Japanese engineering *any* day.
I am so glad to be back to my roots in a Japanese car.

As I continue to research the best path for me, one thing came to mind with the stroker route. It seems about 40whp is the "typical" increase with a stroker still using the stock top end, most commonly the InlinePro F24 kit. There now seems to be some dynos that prove InlinePro's claims. However, all those dynos were done on 93 octane running the InlinePro F24's standard 12.5:1 CR (or near that), which apparently I can't do on craptactular california 91 octane. So that leaves me to wonder, what gains would I get with an F24 setup safe for 91 octane? Do these stroker kits primarily make the gains via the use of higher compression ratio? If so, would that mean that a 91 octane safe kit, which it seems would run a max of about 11.5:1 CR wouldn't get near the 40whp gains that others and InlinePro experience?
So, what is the primary mechanism a stroker kit makes those extra gains? Is it via the high compression ratio and associated tuning for that compression (of courses aided by the additional volume)? If so, does that mean a 91 octane version wouldn't net near the 40whp gains as the standard 93 octane 12.5+ CR versions do?
As I dig into the stroker further, while it seems to deliver my goals the best (low and midrange gains), it may perhaps not be the best route when considering I'm in cali stuck with 91 octane (and I don't want to depend on E85).
Anyone know?

It's difficult for me to see the majority of the 40whp typical gain from just the extra 200cc, but it'd be great if that is true. I wish there were someone in Cali with a F24 running on 91 that would chime in with dyno gains. A stroker is still the lead option in my future upgrade plans, but it seems 91 octane fuel is such a limiting factor. Others running on 93 have reported running up to 13:1 CR while someone running 11.7:1 CR on 91 has reported predet when hitting throttle at low rpms.
Keep any info coming guys. I'd appreciate as much as I can gather.
