Default best possible minor upgrades for b20 turbo

k guys, here's the deal. i'm going with the B20Z turbo. not the B20 vtec, but just the straight B20. i will be using the vehicle for daily driving on 5-7 pounds of boost (very minimal). just curious if there's anything i would need to do to this motor to make it last me a while and not break a sweat if i go into boost.

anyone's 2cents would be appreciated...

Negatory. Why open the block, if you don't need to?
Honda Bearings are the shiznite, and the crank is already balanced...
Who are you talking to anyway?
Here goes. Search for topics that I created.
Anyway, besides the turbo system, I was running cams, Skunk2 IM, Cam gears, AFC, etc... Over 210WHP/190TQ at 6psi
A B20 should be fine for a long time under 7 psi, as long as cylinder cooling, and detonation are watched.

hey are you interested in a fully built b20 head all done up with crower stuff,crower retainers and srings and crower cams,and its even ported and polished. I'm asking $600,only because its been sitting here for a year and im tired of looking at it.

i've been talking to a certain engine builder that i've known for a while. maybe he was talkin if i were to go with the vtec.. for my understanding, i should be fine with the motor being stock with the amount of boost that i'm going to accumulate. of course i'll be using either koyo or fluidyne (had overheating problems and busting radiators on one of my eg's in the past). i was thinking of changing out the water pump to a different b-series other than the b20, but i still need to research a little more.
