I observed that the EVO engine has a higher compression ratio of 8.5 as opposed to the WRX or STI's 8.0. Higher compression ratio produce more low end torque. And the EVO produce a fat torque curve. Why Subaru does not use higher compression in the engine to give us more low end torque?

I would guess the reason is so that you can safely run a higher boost pressure while sacrificing some low-end...but that's just a guess.
