Default Too much compression?

Do any of you forced induction guys know if I can run a STS turbo kit on an ls1 that has 5.3L heads? Many people have said that my compression ratio may be too high, but I haven't gotten a straight answer from a reliable source. I'm running a small cam (218/221 with a 114lsa) and want to add forced induction.

Default

You can run the STS kit but at a low boost setting and your tuner be have his game face to watch timing and A/F.
