I would probably get 8.5-9 since it appears the head will raise it some. There are people out there with high compression turbo setups but it just raises the chances that you will run into detonation. Make sure you tuner is comfortable doing this before you buy the parts.
More boost is the answer for big power numbers not a higher compression ratio.
