    10.5 is alot of compression to start with, and yes lowering it should be first on the list of things to do. You have to have somewhere for the extra air to go. the more compression, the less boost. I wouldnt want much more than 9:1 for a blown motor, and less than that is better.

    He's right. It's a lot safer to have low compression.
