Default Is the Base RSX a good candidate for turbo?

Is the base RSX engine, K20A3, a good candidate for boost? Of course, I mean very modest boost (6-8lbs). I wonder if the K20A3 as good at handling boost as the old "B" series engines in the Integras? By "good" I mean realiable/durable for the long term daily commuter.
I wonder how that plastic intake manifold is going to like the extra heat of a turbo,, Will I hear it scream "I'm melting!" :naughty:

Thanks,
Tony
