Default Compression huh? (more power please)

So I was told that improving compression in a motorcycle engine is a great way to increase horsepower. Also in this list was "blueprinting the exhaust" (?). Can someone explain please A) the blueprinting and B) how to increase compression? Thanks. Yes, I'm a noob.
