first we need to understand how we made power, which is simple

P x L x A x N

P= peak cylinder pressure
L = length of crank stroke
A = area of piston
N= number of power strokes

so what so you think we are increasing if we raise our dynamic compression? ( more boost, more air in about cylinder, more optium ignition and the rest)
