some low compression forged pistons and you could probably do it.

but then the low rpm power would be significantly worse than it already is. wouldn't be fun to drive.

TC in an xB.... Would that make it an xTC?

I doubt it will work, but you never know... run the numbers.

it would take a lot of work and money (i.e. forged pistions, rods, valve springs, head gasket, rings, etc.) but if you got the compression low enough you could crank up the boost and maybe with some nitrious you could get it to 200 to the wheels.....but at that point good luck getting the power to the ground. :D
