Default need help on deciding c/r for turbo set-up

my car is in the shop right now waiting upon its never 84mm sleeve RS block, my question is what compression ratio should i aim for....originally was 10:1 but a friend told me to go 9:5

if you need more info..i have a Type R head portflow port and polish, t3/t4 57 trim turbo 440 injectors with hondata s200b

i plan on running 8-10psi street

i heard 10:1 with a 2.0 liter will spool the turbo too quick
to compromise that with 2.0 liter you aim for 9:1-9:5

need help quick i only got liek 2 days to decide upon compression ratio

higher comperssion will make the turbo spool a bit quicker, but with a 2L block. 9.5.1 would be great.

i have 8.5.1 and which i would have stayed in the 9's

platnium.

Too quick??? Here's an old skool domestic drag racer's trick: If your engine makes too much power too quickly, *lift your foot off the gas a little bit!* ahahahaha

Seriously though, 9.5 is a really good cr for boosting. That is what I would use.
