boost is just a measure of pressure. not the "best" way of rating what you can get.

and static compression ratio is also not the best way of knowing how much boost/timing/fuel you can get away with, look into dynamic compression ratio, put down your goals then spec a cam that will give you that DCR for a given static compression ratio and boost psi.
