Depends on the builder's goals... but for the most part... no. A nice high power, low boost build is nice for off the line response but you can easily make up the difference in a lower compression build by upping the boost at a lesser expense with regard to reliability. With cast internals going for a high compression build is a joke and seldom anything more than a bad idea.
