The reaction you are likely to get here is that you don't first pick a compression ratio and then build whatever engine to that compression. The compression ratio is determined after a lot of other things are known, such as combustion chamber and piston crown shapes, port and valve details, camshaft specs, and much more, not to mention gearing and weight and intended use of the vehicle, and of course, the preferred fuel octane.
