    Plenty people run high compression cars with zero mechanical reliability issues.

    To answer the 6 HP question, you need a proper tune.

    Also, have pictures of the graphs?

    I ask because peak numbers are rather useless.

    Its the shape of the plots that matter.

    It's all in the tune...not having a properly tuned high compression car WILL grenade it. No doubt. I've seen plenty of high compression cars that run GREAT.
