well this is where it gets interesting..
My theory is that the lower pressure caused by the 16V's flow will offset
the lower pressure required in high compression motors.  I've been reading
articles on turbocharging high compression Porsche motors (11:1) and with
low amounts of boost its entirely feasible and safe. My big problem is
getting the mixture and ignition timing corrected but I think that the
knock sensor box and oxygen sensor might be able to handle a bit of this
