Default High Compression Turbo

Everybody always talks about a Low Compression TUrbo motor and how low compression but I heard High compression wiill be better. I was reading up on it and I really dont understand why, and if you were to turbocharge a B18C5 Motor what would u need to do so it can still run the high compression on top of a turbo??? Please let me know...

Thank you...

You would be better off turbocharging a B18C1 than a B18C5. It's not the compression of a B18C5 that scares me...it's the lightweight rods and pistons meant for an NA application that would leave me weary...well, more weary than a B18C1.

Either way, both motors are good for it.
