I had install a second instance of SSRS on my server(at the developer request), one for there test reports and the other one for their developement reports (the 2nd instance). If they need to connect to the 2nd instance, don't they need to make the changes to there data source string so the can establish the connection as well as write to and from the database.

There is no configuration which I need to do to the registry or anything. Am I correct on this.

They need to do the changes in datasource connection to connect to new instance. Also reports need to be deployed to report manager of 2nd instance

Is there a problem (or possible) to have multiple instance or SSRS 2008 under one SQL 2008 if I'm running under Sharepoint intergrated.

You don't need to make any changes in the registry. But you will need to point to the appropriate data sources. And, your URL's would be different. See here for some useful information: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms403426(v=sql.90).aspx

No issues
I've a machine where I've two instances of SQL Server db along with SSRS running (2005/2008 R2)

You'll have seperate report managers (and report server databases) for each
2005 would require IIS whereas 2008 R2 doesnt require any IIS
Reports can be deployed to both servers using appropriate report server config urls.
