Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the back of the car. Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car. Horsepower is how fast you're going when you hit the wall, and torque is how far you drag the wall with you.

i think it'll be fine.. but a guy who knows alot about v8's and shit says it'll be to much compresson...
so his word is good to me.. but he dont really know bout 4 cylenders
old school muscle, 10:1 is high. there are plenty of stock hondas that run over 10:1 b18c5, h22's, k20's all run 11:1, if its good enough for oem, its good enough for a built engine.

12:1 is about the limit i would run on stock compression. too far after that and you have to pull the timing so much it negates the added power/torque from the increased c/r

Running a higher compression ratio requires a much more precise tune. You can probably run 12:1 on 93 just fine but you need to make sure that it's tuned by someone who knows what they're doing and that you keep it tuned. 11:1 is still high but it's by no means impossible. Again just make sure that the motor has been tuned and that your tune is checked regularly so your motor is happy.
