Default constructive criticism needed on poorman type r build

I have a b16 with ctr pistons and built head right now. have 5k miles on motor but want to build something else cause im bored.

so far ive acquired a few parts for the new build.

98 gsr block 82mm bore
knife edged ls crank
moroso pan and pick up brank new oil and water pump and seals
arp head studs and all the nuts and bolts to put it all together.

now im going to use stock length eagle ls rods but im not sure on what pistons to use at this point. im going to turbo this motor and will be a dd on pump gas and will be at the track every chance it gets.

the head im going to use is the head I already have.

00 b16 head
completely rebuilt
new style LMA's
new valve seals
brian crower SS swirl flat faced valves
blox duel springs and retainers
jun stage 2 cams
aem tru time can gears
P&P
hondata gasket
blox intake manifold
omni power 70mm tb (head intake mani and tb are port matched and flow tested)
blox adjustable fpr
rc 550's
stock fuel rail :-)
on s300 and will be tuned

now I have no idea what kinda power to shoot for here as I dont have the turbo or any of the components yet. what kinda power will this motor handle and what kinda turbo set up do you guys suggest?

thanks for the input

It will handle as much as a good tune will allow. Poor tune will result in an engine that doesn't last as long which is kind of obvious. Anyhow, you're going with a fully built setup from the sound of it, many factors will come into play when saying how long or how much it can sustain. If you drive your car like an old lady it will probably last longer even if it has the ability to produce 800hp. What are your goals with this car? I missed it in the original post.

Determine your power goal...you will get more criticism if you give us that. Also is this a DD or street/track or track only. Your fuel setup will determine your power goals. 550cc will probably give you about 400hp.

this is a dd but obviously gonna see its share of races. im thinkin around 350 on pump gas would be nice to play with, I would like to keep the boost at a safe level to not blow the thing up after a few weeks of abuse

The setup that you have is pretty good. You could even get to 500 or 600 if you really wanted to but its up to you. If you plan on going higher I would get the blocked sleeved since its already off the car but if you plan on making 350 then that will do. If you want to make more power its up to your fuel setup and turbo charger.
