The S1 I have got has S2 pistons (8,5:1), the rest of the engine is S1

Do I need to set the ignition timing different for the higher compression ratio?

Yes, set the ignition safe and keep fuelling on the richer side to avoid det without any thermal management. Also use as high an octane fuel as possible, if not with an octane booster if you are giving it full beans, especially in warmer days

A rolling road session will tell you have far to go before det. However I would do this in warmer (Summer) air temps than the current 0deg or so in Europe this week. The colder air intake will mask the det threshold until the Summer. Then in 30deg air temps you'll be knocking quite a lot.

also look at some protection with AFR and knock sensors

Or have the boost adjustable, so you can find a safe level. A us wg spring would be nice+ boost controller. Of course you should always have a knock warning system.

Retard timing. Less power, less risk of det.

I think this means potentially less boost, not more boost without IC Just need to balance boost versus ignition. Lower boost, more ignition. Higher boost, less ignition. The dyno will tell which is best without loosing performance

I wouldn't boost above the stock 0.65-0.7 bar without IC in place.

In my 941, I am running 8.7:1 CR, no thermal coatings on the slugs, 12 psi of boost (stock US-spec wastegate spring with manual in-cockpit boost controller). I have a Snow Performance Stage 2 Boost Cooler with MAP sensor that begins spraying at 5PSI and increases linearly to full spray at max boost (12psi). It runs on stock S1 US-spec ignition system (no initial advance or retard, standard 20° BTDC timing), and I always use 93 Octane premium fuel. No issues, no detonation. Has not been dyno tuned.

Yes exactly, a slightly lower boost level could be nicer to the engine than only retarding the ignition, which pushes EGTs upwards quite fast.

I have s1 WG spring (0,7bar), and the larger s1 kompressor (2664) on my s2 engine. It works for the track, ive driven it at track days above 30degC without any detonation. But there is very little margin for any raised boost. The car made 168hp on rototest hubdyno, according to rototest testing statistics a 10% loss is reasonable, which is 185hp at the crank. Sounds reasonable. But that is with the much more sophisticated s2 ignition system.
