98 RON is about equal to 93-94 in the US, so I'd stick with 9.5-1 or so CR. I have seen higher run on that gas, but I like to make errors on the caution side.

If i am undersrtood right, the dynamic compression ratio should be arround 8.0 or bit more.

you can go 10/10.5-1 compression.I ran 10.3-1 for years on iron heads and 93 octane.

In very general terms, yes. Big difference between Dynamic and static CR.
