Considering how many of these things blow up just fine by themselves, I would strongly disagree with the statement that adding forced induction will be "fine."

I wouldn't remotely consider adding boost to one of these things unless the motor had been built for it. I briefly considered building my 3.8 with low compression pistons and turbocharging it, but when the thing makes 400HP normally aspirated, who needs any more than that in a 3000lb car on the street?
