Default Going Turbo this summer.. couple questions

Ok, as of right now I have a 95 Integra with LS/VTEC, 8k on the new motor, skunk2 IM and so forth. I really want to boost since building a good N/A setup is just as expensive anyway.

I have JDM B16 pistons which yeild 11.5:1 C/R. I was considering going with some stock LS pistons and rings which would put me down around 9.6:1 c/r. I know I should go with Forged pistons.. which I might still do.. depending on how much I spend on everything else first.

In you guys opinions, if I go with a GReddy turbo kit (probably pickup a d-series kit for around $900 with no piping and get GSR piping), Hondata s200 with boost option, GOOD tuning.. do you think I can run this setup till next summer at 8-10psi daily and not worry?

I only need it to last till next summer, which gives me a year to save up a few grand to do a complete engine build and run 18psi or so.

This is what I was planning on running;

GReddy Kit
Intercooled
GReddy TypeS Bov
Hondata S200
ACT clutch
370cc or 440cc Injectors

yeah as long as you run proper fuel management and dont go over 10lbs, you should be fine. get the 440s atleast; im getting 450s and hondata, running 10 lbs on stock internals (i have an ls). eventually im going to rebuild my engine as well, im hoping for next summer but well see.
