F22 is better suited for boost since it's a SOHC and a tad less compression.... As for internals you'll want forged rods and pistons at the very least.... check out www.f22parts.com for a TON of stuff for the f22

H22A tends to be a much better N/A build

It can be done for the right $$$$$. Full sleve job, head, camshaft, etc. Better off buying a crate race motor.

RE: INTERNAL ENGINE MODS FOR A TURBO

As long as the bottom end is built and supported right and its tuned properly, the engine should last 100k miles if not more. Evena stockF23 has been shown to hold 17psi with no problems. Its all in the tuning.
