I don't know where you got your information, but you are dead wrong.

The S/C engine does not have the same compression as the N/A engine.[/b]
I got my information direct from Nissan... Here is my primary source for that fact:

According to that official Nissan Document, the 3.3L V6 engine found in both N/A and S/C versions share the same compression ratio of 8.9
