These engines really are bullet proof. You can chuck 300hp down their neck easily without even thinking about forging anything so you could turbo it. I know of a few that were done before or during my 106 days (2007-8) and are still about, as happy as a standard engine.
If you don't want to spend the money on a turbo setup (won't be cheap...my SC project cost £1500ish and that was a fairly cheap build minus the ECU), you could refit the cams and have a map on it if you can find one online or on the forums. The 106gti uses the same 1AP as the gti6 which can be remapped fairly easily with the right kit!
