Default 90 integra da's Ls/vtec turbo build

Hey guys I thought I'd make a thread to get some feedback and questions answered for my build all in one place. This has been a slow moving project but is finally getting closer to completion.

Block:
Stock sleeve b18a
81.5mm 9:1 compression wiseco pistons
Eagle rods
ACL main and rod bearings
Full rotating assembly balanced
Golden eagle sandwich plate

Head:
Bone stock fresh rebuilt gsr
Valves and seats re cut
Stock valvetrain and cams
Adjustable cam gears?
Blox intake manifold
Throttle body?
Valve cover vented with 2 -10an fittings
Stock honda head gasket
ARP head studs

Turbo kit:
Blackworks Racing Ram horn
Precision 5858 journal bearing .63 A/R
Precision 46mm wastegate
probably tial q bov?
unsure on intercooler?

Fuel/ecu:
Hondata s200
Precision 1000cc injectors
Walbro 255
Stock fuel rail?
Stock FPR?

Trans/clutch:
None of this has been bought yet so I'm up for suggestions
Thinking maybe gsr trans with mfactory lsd
Stock flywheel or not with higher staged clutch?


Any '?'s indicate that I'm unsure on that particular part, any feedback will be helpful.

I'm hoping to make high 300's to low 400whp but really will just be happy to get it driving again ha. Hopefully will be getting the car tuned by King Motorsports or Beeyond engineering in Milwaukee, haven't decided yet.

What are everyone's thoughts on the build and my expectations? Feel free to critique and chime in. I'm sure theres some stuff I've left out too, but I have most of the main stuff covered.

Don't bother with:

Throttle body
Cam Gears
Fuel Rail
FPR

You'll make 300-400 without it.

GSR tranny w/ MFac LSD sounds good if you can afford it.
Stock Flywheel.
Look into a CompClutch Stage3

But don't take my word for it!

I'm doing a very similar build to yours, right now I'm stuck on what bearings to get, my block and crank are going out to the machine shop this week.
JDM H22 why do u say no cam gears? I thought ls vtec motors need them because the timing is always off slightly

Never heard of the timing being off from ls/vteccing the motor. They use them to adjust timing for boost

I just let the engine builder pick the bearings he was comfortable with.

Anyone else want to chime in? I'm thinking that somewhere down the road I may upgrade cams and springs/retainers. Would that segmented disk clutch be enough for a little over 400 or am I looking at a pucked design at that point?

It's as simple as reading the ratings before you buy it man...

Clutches typically are rated by percentage over stock torque, not horsepower.

Calculate your anticipated percentage over stock and there you go.

Stage 3 segmented ceramic CompClutch is what i'd do.. a little overkill @ 150% increase in torque over stock gives you room for growth And it's fairly smooth for the street.

Sorry I should have been more clear, I meant nothing? in general. I got the clutch part I did some research and I'm liking the idea of the stage 3.
