I dont think that these need to be replaced. Stock rev limit, your stock componenets should be fine.

the head is strong enough if your not reving over your rev limit. besides you shouldn't be doing that with a turbo setup anyways. it's straight!

I would recomend a type-r spring kit. Low budget but safer than stock!

fi your running a turbo setup then i wouldn't go past 8k or the stock redline. 8k is more than enough if boosted imo.

I wouldnt go with 85mm for turbo....thats too much displacement. Not to say it hasnt been done, but its not the norm and usually not recommended.

not always true.. it all depends on what turbo size/ gearing etc.. etc...

IMO u are trying to save money in the wrong department...i would "at least" get retainers..ive seen many of them crack with one miss shift(something none of us cant garantee wont happen)..why risk the whole setup for something so cheap?..just my ..02
