Stumbled across this unanswered question looking for the same answer. The closest thing I can come up right now is this:

import requests
from scrapy.http import TextResponse

r = requests.get('http://stackoverflow.com/')
response = TextResponse(r.url, body=r.text, encoding='utf-8')

Then you can debug response using usual methods like xpath().
