Default Are Honda Motors really made ready to be Boosted?

Even though Honda don't make Boosted engines, but really doesnt it kinda of seem like its build ready to be boosted?
For instance, B18A/B LS motors seems like those are the ones really made ready to be Boosted. What do you all think?
Seems like Honda motors gots a nice Reputation as far as being boosted. I hear lots of good results from Boosted honda motors.

Stock engines made to handle a turbo or sc are typically much better at taking boost than a stock honda motor.

So no, I don't think they seem "built for boost"
