That strikes me as an underestimate to the effect of the compression difference. I'm planning to bump my s54 by .5 when i rebuild it and expect to get ~15-20 wheel from it.

Great write up on the effects of compression here: http://www.popularhotrodding.com/tec...on_ratio_tech/
Expect <2.5% difference.

That article does make me happy with my plan for my s54: cams, thermal coatings, head work, and compression bump. Sounds like they agree that they're complementary mods. Hoping for 40-50 whp more total

Yes, you have a knock sensor that backs off the timing.

Indeed. My thought is that BMW designed it to be run at 11.5:1 on 91 octane so 12:1 should be well matched to the 93 octane that I dd. In the rare instance I get stuck with 91, the car can notice via knock sensors and retard timing (as the car can safely run 87 Octane stock in a pinch). What I should really be losing is the ability to run 87 safely in a pinch.

i had ess tune on my n51 disa w very good result. dyno are very similar to n52 disa w tune, maybe just 4-5whp less w all identical add on.
apparently n51 w disa has been tuned down at factory to match smooth torque of 230hp n52. otherwise it will be and feel faster especially at lower rpm around 2750.

tune is really same with 128i, im the first N51 ESS had worked on, so the dyno i have its really early beta, we made many revision to the tune since then, but those guy really nailed most of it the very first time. revision smooth out the throttle and torque limiter setting a bit.
