Well it really depends on how crazy you want to go with your turbo. If your boost levels are low i.e 5 psi, stock internals should be fine. But......as your boost goes up your bottom end should be built accordingly. If you end up buying a large turbo i would suggest lowering your compression to 8:5:1. reinforced JE pistons, tougher rods (Crower, Eagle) and stainless valves. Look into either the Revhard or Fmax brand, they are quality kits. Try going to the FI section for further insights

Shouldn't you get some titanium Valve springs in there too?

I'd start off with a Nuformz Blockguard....and while the head is off get titanium Springs and Retainers.
