With that said, you or your motor builder will need a host of parts, including but not limited to new forged rods, lower compression forged pistons, bearings, gaskets, seals, bolts, studs, etc. A crank would not be necessary unless you intend on changing your displacement (which I would advise against), the VQ family of cranks are very hearty and have shown to be capable of withstanding upwards to 800-1000 HP and over 12,000 rpm without a problem.
You can leave it with the same compression as stock. I know a highly respected tuner that recommends it. I think I might lower it just a tad though, thats just me.

I think he was more along the lines saying that because I said i wanted to lower the compresion and was telling me what i would need to do that. I am not to savy with rebuilding a motor.
