It all depends on the size of your turbo, and the overall dimensions of your manifold. Many people have retained PS with boosted cars. Your ramhorn might actually help bring the turbo out farther.

Can't you just mock it up?

The picture is of a GS-R head and GS-R P72 PS pump upper mount. I can't remember if the other VTEC heads had a different mount or not.

all the other b series heads have basically the same style brackets. gsr's have the heat shield bolted to the head rather than the bracket.

Just trim that bracket. The bracket is the least of your worries.
