You put the correct pistons into the engine (while it is apart right now) you have a lot of room for growth with the boost system vs a bandaid with a high failure potential just to get to 9 to 1 compression ratio.
Send a PM to Charlie66 as he has been running e-85 with boost for years, He has run as high as 39 psi, He makes 750+ HP out of a 1/2 of a 400 engine (4 cylinder pontiac engine) with 4 more cylinders he would make 1500 hp out of a 400 cid engine on e-85.
HE can give you some very good advice on running a E-85 engine with boost on the street.
