For every full point of compression, you are talking about 10hp increase ... with boost, maybe 20hp. I am not against boosting high compression engines, I am against using inferior stock components. At 6+psi, the stock rods are at their limits. As long as I am replacing the rods and pistons to take a beating, I may as well lower compression and increase boost ... much better than the other way around. I would like to get Terry's thoughts on this matter. 99% sure he will agree ... 9:1 or lower + more boost is the way to go. When you bend a rod or walk the crank, I think that you will start to agree.
