Sorry but it does not raise the compression ratio one bit. I raises the
air density if done correctly. If not done correctly it only raises the
inlet air temperature.. The whole dynamic compression ratioo change is
some sort of urban myth/ explanation for something people do not
understand. Boost is a meaningless value really what you should be
interested in is pounds per minute of air.

 What you are really doing with a turbo is increasing the compression
ratio, dynamically of course.
