If you take into consideration that the US spec Vanagon had a lower compression
ratio than their European counterpart, I would not say that tuning will give
higher compression than it was designed to deal with.

Btw, all 1,9s had the same compression ratio, no matter what fuel configuration
it had. The 2,1 was a bit different. See
