The higher the compression the less air/boost can be injected into the chamber before the
pressure becomes so great that you get detonation where ig ignites from pressure not spark.
lowering the compression means you can add more air/fuel before that detonation pressure
is reached and more boost=air/fuel the bigger th bang and the more horsepower.
