We had our cars worked on at the same time in feb.. dynoed with in 2 hours of each other both manual 6, both same fuel system, same dyno, she has a better blower. (Moves more air and iats where better since I was over spinning mine)

Lower compression wins when you can turn up the boost agreed..

Higher compression wins if you have a fuel system and octane.

But in the LT Direct injection running on 93 lower seems better..the blowers can out perform the fuel sytem.

Look at the Street Brawler by Jannety. 735 on a SS with cam and maggi2300, on zl1s it's in the 800s.
If you are going in the motor to put in new rods and pistons anyway, keep the compression high because you just took the weak link out of the equation.
