It is possible to use N/A rotors in a turbo engine. They are the same size, just different compression. What level of boost is "safe" has been and still is widely debated.

yea i was woundering the same thing cause i have a S4 with a new motor and i dont want to pull it to do anything crazy to it, so i was curious if you could turbo a N/a but just run 5 or less psi, my friend said thats pretty much the safest number to have:P. I just didnt make a topic cause i thought i was going to get flamed or something lol

From his original post, I thought he wanted to know if you can use the 9.4:1 rotors in a turbo engine block. This is easy to do, as you just rebuild the motor with the different set of rotors.
If you are talking about adding a turbocharger to a N/A engine block, it is also possible but it's a bigger pain in the ***.

You can run boost on any compression motor but as boost and compression increase so does the risk of detonation and ignition timing and fuel mixtures become much more critical. I prefer higher compression they spool turbo's faster and respond to boost great

well i wont be running race fuel .. i was just loioking for somthing that will spool up fast freeing up some low end power ... and it qwould seem a higher compression spools twice as fast and is much more responsive as apposed to a 8;5;1 engine .... i wasnt looking for much more boost than say 15psi
