Agreed with the previous two posters - get a C/S prop and keep the low compression (or, at least don't go over 8.5). The T/O performance will be hugely improved with just the prop, and you won't see appreciable extra improvement from the extra 10hp that higher compression pistons would bring. Meanwhile, you are future-proofed against any new legislation limiting 100LL. Comparing the costs of the two changes, your bang-for-the-buck is good for the prop and not so good for the pistons (and that not even counting the increased wear on the engine).
For those worried about detonation in very high compression engines (over 8.5:1), short of the much anticipated anti-knock system from a not-to-be-named vendor you can also simply switch to electronic ignition and retard the timing a touch. For reference, my 10:1 IO-320 uses 20BTDC instead of 25BTDC. The hotter spark of these systems will prevent excessive power loss from the retarded base setting, while the timing advance features of these ignitions will assure you are still getting better-than-MAG performance at altitude / reduced power settings. My limited understanding is that anything over 10:1 is a racing configuration, and may need even higher octane than 100 to prevent detonation.
