You can also add to that with a thicker headgasket. Also some valve trains help you up the boost also by changing the duration and allow you to run more boost.

I don't believe in lowering compression. It's like giving 3 feet to gain a yard.

I think you should just strengthen your engine - forged, rather than low compression pistols, resleeve the block with something stronger etc.

If you have a good computer and a good engineer, they should be able to tune it well for you so that you can get high compression and high boost without any problems.
