I had a set of 'self adjusting' pistons.

They were like Hungry Jack biscuits, when the CR was
too high, the top layer of the pistons would melt
harmlessley away and be flushed out the tailpipe, thus
reducing the CR. Eventually, the CR would be reduced
enough that the top layer would no longer melt, and
voila!
