Default Max safe DCR recommendation please

I want to maximize low and mid range torque with a H/C package so I need a DCR recommendation that won't lead to detonation. SCR = 10.76, Fuel = 93 Octane.

Thanks in advance.

less than 9 I think it would be hard to get there with a 10.76 scr

i ran around 9.0 dcr without issues on 93 octane but that was also in cool weather.8.8 or so should be easily done even in hot weather with a good tune i would think.
^^^^^ what he said ^^^ with only 10:76 scr it will take a pretty small stick to get you up in the 8:5 + dcr range.
