It is legal to log PIC as SIC.
FAR 1 PIC is the captain time. The captain logs all time as PIC regardless of whether he is the PF.
FAR 61 allows you to log PIC time if you are appropriately rated (typed) and sole manipulator of the controls.
As an FO, I log the entire flight as SIC. For legs where I am the PF, I have a separate column for "FAR 61 T(urbine) PIC." This is totally legal and I have talked to several recruiters with this in my logbook and on my resume and they never said anything negative about it. On the other hand, it didn't help much either.
