could you? yes
should you? hell no
just boost the stock motor and make plenty of power, then build a spare to go in if it ever blows, or when you want an insane amount of HP.
stock motor on pump gas with a good setup will make 500whp.

I think you overlooked the obvious question at hand: "Am I really gonna want to go back to NA after having a FULLY BUILT turbo S2000?" If you're stuck on that idea then why not build a F24C?

i was kinda thinking it would be like a safty feature i would rather blow a headgaket then shoot a rod through the block. the headgasket will be the weak spot so its kinda a safty device?!?...
now im confusing my self but its all good who needs sleep anyway.

No. If you're building the engine, then have the lowered compression built into the new engine.
1. If the engine is still running when you go back to NA, sell it and get a stock motor. You'll still recoup enough money to make it worthwhile rather than using a built engine without boost.
2. If the engine is NOT running when you go back to NA, you'll need a replacement motor anyway.
3. You do know that your motor and turbo build will be >$15k when all is said and done, right? With that much hp, make sure you save money for upgraded diff and tranny (another $5-10k).
4. No engine is bulletproof.

I had a dream last night for my s2k... Ive been planning on building a turbo motor for my s2k for a while now and had my mind pretty set until last night. in my dream i had the idea to build my engine at 12.5:1 then run an inline 3mm pro head gasket to drop the compression down just in case i ever wanted to go n/a ever again. is that crazy or would it work. heres my idea on my setup as of right now
f20c with stock bore benson sleeves
custom endyn roller wave pistons with 4mm thickness option with skirt and walls coated
carrilo rods
endyn ported head with welded chambers (unknown springs and retainers)
bisimoto cams
twm 52mm itb's with a custom plenum welded to it to work with boost (i have a miller tig)
AFI twin scroll turbo manifold T4 with twin 44mm gates
Garrett GTX3582R with a 1.06 t4 twin scroll hot side (how much power is this good for???)
custom intercooler piping
dual backdoor intercooler
50mm tial bov
id1000's
walbro 255 intank with a Bosch 040 inline with -6 lines
AEM ems series 2
inline pro r200 diff kit
probably forgetting a few things but thats the general idea only difference would be the different comp pistons and a good header if i went back N/A
sorry i kinda rambeled but my head is swimming with ideas now
thanks
Eddie

Don't run anything but stock headgasket thickness, way to many failures. Plus if you wanted to go N/A again there's other options to raise compression again such as milling the head, piston changes etc.
Especially with the kind of power you're talking since you're speaking about a 35R, even at a GTX3076 I'd be saying no go on thicker head gaskets. Just a bad idea, wrong way to do it, just do it right the first time, drop to 9.5:1 compression.
