Thanks Dale.

I presume this changing of the compression ratio is a design compromise by the manufacturer.

The act of merely bolting a turbocharger onto an engine won't change the compression ratio unless the manufacturer makes a design decision to change the length of the piston/ length of the con rod/ anything else - to change that ratio though will it?
