I agree with Ed, not the best way.
I've heard of people using a sandwich plate of metal between 2 head gaskets to reduce the compression, but then there's twice the chance of blowing one.

The only reason I can think of that you'd want to lower the CR on a 20V is for forced induction.
The 20V pistons aren't made for this & you'd be pulling them out shortly after you've broken them.

If you're going forced induction, either use the ZE pistons or get forged ones suited to the forced induction purpose which will already be made to make a lower CR.
