Is that for your Zl1? If so you shouldn't. If you want power pulley down.

You mill the heads to GAIN compression. When you're boosted, you typically want lower compression so you can run more boost, safely. If you want more power from a blower motor, you swap pulleys.

little88 is correct. Do NOT mill the heads for FI....there are a ton of other mods you can do for as much power as you desire.
