Reducing CR by skimming Pistons or new con rods

Aw come on, that's an expensive bodge - how much is it going to cost to program a multi axis CNC mill to do one job? Then what about the valve seat/heads sticking out? Even then you won't take anywhere near 3 points from the CR. A set of forged pistons the correct CR is the only way.

You do realise, that before all these fancy CNC machines were invented, people modified such things by hand ?

There are many ways to achieve the CR, and as already stated, really that is the least of his worries.
If he cant even manage that which is the most simple of tasks, he stands no chance of pushing the boost he talks about. Not by a long shot.

Why not offset grind the crank journals in the block to lower the crank. Easy peasy, jobs a goodun. Then all you need is a lowering spacer for the sump.

Nice bit of lateral thinking there Mike.
Or vertical...
