run lower boost levels that can achieve same power as lower ratio with higher boost levels, higher egts and a little tricker to tune.

so I've heard.......

Technically you do want as high of compression as you can get with boost........ BUT! tuning is harder as the compression ratio goes up and things get riskyer (if thats a word ahaah) but you will see more power with less boost...

Correct Sir

Nate, if you have the opportunity to run lower than 10:1, I say go for it.
