But it would make mega power with only like 2 psi with such crazy compression right?

So in summary... The boost levels typically seen from a supercharger are fine with slightly elevated compression. GM lowered the compression on supercharged motors as a way to reduce warranty costs- so many "average" people don't understand why you need the increased detonation resistance of higher octane fuel in their supercharged motors, etc.
But once you really start to push boost (i.e. with a turbo) you really do need to back off the compression. You can moderate that effect by doing some things (like intercooling, using E85 or race fuel or xylene, water injection, etc.) but as the boost levels get up there you really do need to back off the compression to prevent motor damage. And don't worry about sounding like a wimp with lower compression- with all that boost, you are really cramming the cylinder full and achieving very high cylinder pressures anyhow.
What about both? Compound boosting. Been done.
The blower isn't restricting anything.
