Ok bad example, any application where off boost performance is not paramount. Drag racing.

Although i do stand by my comment, that in 'some' rallying applications low comp is benificial to be able to run higher boost and then use anti lag to reduce the detremental effects. If you can achieve the desired boost levels without decreasing compression then yes this is better. I thought i made that clear with my explaination. Just a bad example, especially as you have a rally cossie by the looks of things, and im guessing that it aint low comp!
