Default Finally rebuilding engine, need compression help...

I finally decided to rebuild my engine, im thinking about going with about 10:1 compression with overbored forged pistons. The problem is that i will be turboing the engine about a year from now and i dont want to drive my car at a low 8.5:1 compression. Will 10:1 be safe to turbo in the future.

Should be okay. Many buddies of mine run like 12psi on stock GSR compression.

This sounds cliche-ic but remember "Good Tuning" will prevent motor melt down.
