Default Boost with high compression....who's tried it?

Since I'm having my block sleeved and will be running Hondata, I'm tempted to give it a try. Maybe keep the boost down around 8-10psi. Dumb idea or worth a shot on a built block?

(Like 10.5:1 or 11:1)

I am running Stock JDM GSR 10.6:1 compression but only until my block gets back from Golden Eagle.. As long as you run a conservatively fat (rich) mixture you shouldn't have any problems!

viren is running 10.0:1 I believe @ 30psi or so. as long as fuel and ignition timing are in check you should be ok.

Cool, I think I'm going to give it a try No reason to spend all this money on reinforcing the block if I'm not going to throw the kitchen sink at it.
