I've herd multiple opinions on this topic. But, I have to and want to know, is it possible to boost my car if I've done the PI head swap.

This. Old school teaching was to be scared of higher compression mixed with boost. This has been proven wrong by multiple setups. Get a good Dyno tune and you will be fine. Higher compression can help with low end and will give you gains across the powerband with the right mix of components.
