RE: Compression

depends, i think patriot removes the mask in the combustion chamber and uses different valves so it could change...i remember reading somewhere there stage 2 heads are 46cc up from 42cc stock so that could be up to .5 of a point of compression. Call Patriot and ask Gunnar to be certain.
