Message Higher compression will make more power off boost (just before the turbos hit) then after the turbos hit there is more energy wasted compressing with the piston vs compressing with the turbo.

Lower compression will cause the turbos to do most of the compression work (which is far more efficient) but only after they are spooled.

I would imagine the multiplying nature of turbos would cause the power to come fast/all at once on a lower compression motor vs higher compression motor. Basically spooling the turbos faster/ all at once but not sooner/ same rpm (just a hunch).

*disclaimer*: all that I say may be true or I may be completely wrong and I accept that.... please, it is your duty as another person on the internet to in-politely tell me how wrong I am :)
