Default turbo question

this question does not apply to adding hp...im just wondering in order to have a correct a/f ratio would i have to do head work on my lsvtec?? i know turbos require alot of space(flow area) in order to eliminate backpressure and also will it hurt my top end(high rpms) without headwork? also with head work done will my motor run cooler?
