How does the compression ratio affect the power directly then? I know that it somehow relates to advance of the ignition, but surely if the head cant flow the air for big boost on std comp, what changes for low comp?

NOTHING....execpt you can run more advance the lower the comp.
So how is it that you can achieve 500 bhp relatively simply in a low comp engine when compared to a std comp? Or am I underestimating the difficulty in a low comp engine.
