What is the compression ratio? Are the pistons forged or cast? Brand? Which rods?

Its easy to tell from your original post that you need to do more research. Read the FAQ at the top of the forum before posting questions. Turbo setups aren't the kind of the thing you can just 'jump' into blindly

I don't know, can YOU boost a high compression engine?

I know for a fact that I can...

This is one of those things where if you have to ask the question, then you can't.
