Forging internals dropping compression Need opinions

Ok so I've had my Greddy TT kit on for about 4 months and now I'm craving more HP. I havn't been beat yet by anything out on the street but you know how you can't ever have TOO much power...

I was thinking about going with:

WISECO pistons 8.8:1
CARRILLO or PAUTER Rods (which is better?)
Do I need sleeves? ------> Darton any good?

Are there other things I should replace in the motor since it will be out? Engine mileage is 30K and I change the oil about every 1500 miles (Mobile 1 10w30).

I need as much info as I can get on this... Im really trying not to go overbudget nor run into any surprises.

Is the car gonna be slower under 3000rpms (once you drop the compression)?

Any bad experiences from forged veterans??

I got bored with twin turbos pretty quickly as well, so I just bolted on a jet engine from an F/18. No biggy, just a bit cooler than redoing my internals I guess.

Sorry for this pointless post.

Before you dump a bunch of money on a rebuild. I would try retarding your camshafts and try a little more boost. Your questions scare me. I waiting for you to post about your blown engine. You people in Florida crack me up, You have some great parts but have no idea on how to work on them.
Send me 15k and I will tell you how to build an engine.

Ok, there's a start... Retarding my timing might work. More boost---> no sir.
I know a few people already that blew their motors @ 7-8psi and beyond and I'm really trying to get as many miles from this engine as possible. I would however, drop the compression first and then boost more.

I was just gonna buy a whole engine, buld it and then just swap it but even though that would be the best way to do it, it sure isn't the most cost effective.

Why do my questions scare you?
What's up with the 15k?
What parts do us floridians have that you others don't?
And why do you think I'm gonna blow my motor?
