^ No joke.... I wonder if the crank is good for that kind of compression + abuse.

You can do it. It takes tuning or mixed gas or mellow weather or good intake temps or cylinder cooling. New M5 is at 12:1, so are many of the newer sports cars. You right on the edge without mixing fuel. I would absolutely throw some toluene or 100 in the tank.
