Default Compression Numbers for Mini-Me swap and what is the ratio?

Y7 block, Y8 head, OEM Y8 HG

#1 = 175
#2 = 170
#3 = 180
#4 = 175

is that good enough for turbo?

Also what is the compression ratio going to be? from what ive been reading it says 10.23 is that correct?

Well it should be 215ish if the 10.2 compression is right, however, they are very close together which indicates you are alright.

They could be a little higher, but they are all very even. You'll be fine with a turbo on it.
