Its all in the tune, I have close to the same comp and have been at about 300 hp for 3 years. Go post in the fI section and you will get some better help from people who know what there talking about, and search.

you can run boost on high comp. But higher comp requires higher octane. There is a guy around here with a boosted B20VTEC, he runs 115 Octane Race fuel on 16PSI from a gt35r i believe.
