Default build or bust

whats good h-t. i have a 11:5.1 cp lsvtec motor that i built. i am undecided if i want to boost this or not. my turner is capable of tuning the high compression. just wanted to start a build thread to talk about it and what not.

my setup consists of:

b18b block
pr3 81.5 pistons
ls rods with arp rod bolts
gsr headers matted to invida exhaust(sp)
p72-1 head
crower springs and retainers
gsr cams( thinking of getting pro1 stage 1 regrind need opinions)
kgparts lsv conversion kit
ys1 trans (not sure if ls or gsr was told it was gsr
stock clutch(4now)
log manifold(purchased from a member on here good deal)
ebay t3/t4 turbo(its what i have already)
external gated
dsm 450cc
3 or 4 bar map( i have both)
93octane

this is going in a 90 hatch/88 sedan.

on to my questions

is this worth boosting or keeping na?
how many of you boosted this high cr before?
max boost you would use with this cr?

i have ls spare motor, bnib eagle rods just no forged pistons, dont plan to have much boost with the high compression.

i am undecided on what car i want to put it in. its currently in my built hatch that my z6 vitara build was in till it gets fixed.

my hatch


My Sedan(under construction)


the sedan was originally suppose to have the LSV swap but i lost my job and then lost interest in rebuilding it. mostly needs body work and paint. has new manual steering rack(bought from sum site to convert from power steering), integra front knuckles/brake swap, had a rear discs but put on hatch since i didn't drive the sedan, converted to obd1(mono-tech harness). Im still debating on junking it or trying to sell the shell for cheap.
