Not saying it isn't possible... but you'd need to learn what you're doing, and do it right.
As for high compression turbo, it's more than doable. Not recommended for the beginner, but doable. I wouldn't risk it myself! Low compression isn't necessary for turbo, it just increases the amount of room you have for error. Bump compression into the 12s, you had better know how to tune it perfectly! If you're wrong and try to run the motor... boom.
