Default Low comp/high comp power comparison

If you had a 600hp yb low comp engine (let’s say 7.2:1) and an identical spec engine but a higher comp (let’s say 8.1:1) if boost pressure and everything else was identical would the higher comp engine make the same power as the lower comp one?
Or would it be more or less?

I know the higher comp engine would be more responsive lower down and quicker at spooling but is that where it ends

Cheers Paul
