Default Turboing a built high compression H22

I have a sleeved and fully built H22a with 11.5:1 compression pistons I am thinking about turboing with no more than 10 psi. Any input would be appreciated.
I am also running skunk 2 stage 2 cams. I know they have turbo cams for b series but not for the H. What should I do in this case?
Thanks for your time.

if you can afford the fuel that it's going to require & are willing to deal with the amount of tuning that will have to go into it then i say go for it.. if tuned properly, it would be EXTREAMLY fast!

Yeah still debating on it but I think I am going to go on with it. Either turbo it or nitrous and I figure turboing would be better. So I will see what happens. Thanks

11.5 is pretty high compression, even in NA format.

everything will be dependent on the tuning of the fuel and ignition maps. with that high of a compression ratio, the room for error in tuning is almost nil...but it caaan be done.

11.5 is not high at all for all motor! I'm now 14.4-1 and its a daily driver in the summer. If you want to turbo it consider a thinner head gasket and milling the head to bump compression and run methonol. You could get away with 10lbs and no intercooler, because of how cool meth burns!!! Good luck what ever you decide
