lower compression pistons...problem solved. all (well most atleast) honda DOHC VTEC motors have atleast a 10:1 compression ratio, simply have to lower it, an then build ur internals. i don't really think turbo is good for ANY n/a motor, but if u do it rite, then ur motor will still last.

If you can add F/I to an S2000 without internal mods then you can Turbocharge an RSX (not to say that it won't go without extra wear on the engine). Rev-Hard has a turbo RSX Type-S among a few others.

Well it all comes down to how much boost you are planning to run.
As you know the RSX type S comes with a very high compression ratio which is 11:1:1.

Now turbo can be bad for any motor you have but if you are running a reasonable amount of boost then you should have minimum problems. For all of those who have turbo you all know the maintainence and responsibility of maintaining it. Now there are a few companies who have a turbo for the DC5 which are:

Top Fuel
Greddy
Cybernations
Rev hard

Those are a few companies you may want to look into if you plan to boost.
Well good luck bro.

The number one reason for blowing an engine after adding forced induction is detonation. NOT a good thing. Up to 7 psi seems to be a reasonable amount of boost without running into any major problems. As for me though I'd just add stronger internals for the added insurance against an engine failure.

DOode! Thanks for all the replies! but the thing that question me is how much will I spending on the internals???? Can you send me some good websites to get cheap but good quality aftermarket parts? Thanks again......I think the chicken did man?

You can't really put "cheap" and quality in the same sentence. If you want the best expect to lay a good amount of cash down, but in the end it will all be worth it. Not to say that the most expensive is the best, but you catch my drift.

cheap internals=cheap motor=BOOOOOOOM. if ur going to turbo ur car, do it correctly, and pay the price for high quality parts. if u do it this way, u'll be much safer to run higher boost.
