depends on how much you get milled. i'm assuming you're gonna be shaving off the BLOCK and not the head itself... you'll increase compression by shaving.

anyway, for boost you tend to want lower compression, so only mill enough to have a flat deck. if you have to mill alot, you may want to get a thicker head gasket.
