FOR ONCE IN YOU NOOBS LIVES SEARCH THIS UP!
YES.
You can boost the GSR just fine.
Its not going to pop because of the compression, just learn how to tune it, don't just expect to slap a turbo on and motor and expect to have at it.
With proper tuning yes, turbo GSR can be done. Its compression isn't super high.
Maybe common sense should come into play when there happens to be plenty of people on this board with Turbo GSRs...

Swap the gsr motor asap, sell your sohc and use that money towards your boosted application. Then have the turbo kit installed, along with other supporting mods. Then get it tuned which is most crucial and dyno that bastard. The specs in a gsr can withstand any turbo with the right setup and tune.
