Default help from the turbo guys

hello all im thinking of boosting my car but here is my problem. i just got the bottom end back together with usdm itr pistions, stock everything else on the bottom end. i have a mildly built head. i was trying to make the car all motor but its not what i was hoping for. he is my question is my comp to high now to add boost. i was think of just a bolt on greddy or drag turbo kit. i dont want to have to pull the motor again to redo the bottom end. should i just deal with all motor or do you think i can safely run a turbo. thanks in advanced

with high compression you risk a lot more detonation. Boost is doable but it will have to be tuned properly.
