Turbo a 4cyl with 10.5 CR ? (Subaru )

I am asking for a friend of mine-
I said I would take the question to the brain trust - A noteworthy bunch.
He has a subaru engine with 10.5 pistons. All fresh all new. ( 4 cyl )
This is not in a car
The Rpm is always the same 4800 ( within a 200rpm) and at times just needs more torq
He wants to boost it to about max of 8 lbs.
I know other engines do it /have done it. But no use in reinventing the wheel here.
When he wants more power he wants it now, no spool up time, run it right on the boost thresh hold .
He is a smart person , no dummy. has IC and all parts.
*Should he change back to 8.5 pistons ?
* thats the BIG Question*
