I am not sure you compression ration would be good for boost over 10 psi.

Why not? Rotary Performance has built a few 3rd gens using 9.7:1 compression rotors putting out over 400 hp. I wouldn't think it would be appropriate much above that level but as long as you can tune it well there shouldn't be a problem. I would worry however if someone were still trying to use a rigged stock computer system.
