I need Turbo Guru Opinions on Built LS/Vtec-T
questions are, what cams skunk 2 pro1 or ITR
running on CTR Valve train, or should i upgrade? (dont want to suck a valve)
Balanced Crank and micro polished New honed block
Wesico 8-1 compression pistons
stock sleeve NO BLOCK GUARD
LS tranni for longer gear ratio setup
I dont have the turbo on yet, havnt decided on what turbo to go with....
would it be reasonable to say that 350HP would be a reliable goal for DD?
will be tuned on Hondata S200 on P28 OBD2->OBD1
will i need to upgrade my axles?
an info will be much appreciated... thanks!

you really dont want to use that ls trans, search on it and see opinions but for a power goal like 350i think gsr trans is better suited.
i think there were some comparisons done a while ago and the pro1s came out to be a better cam. i would upgrade the springs and retainers. now this isnt to say you cant make great power on stock itr cams and valvetrain. again for your power goal you can easily do it with the itr setup and save some bucks

OK so you are saying that you personally would replace the valvetrain but it is not required ? or i NEED to replace the valvetrain.

Re: (g0tgot)
Your revlimit should be dependent on your turbo's flow capabilities. Is 350whp your max hp goal? For the power, I'd say to go with the Tuner 1's, we were recently recommended them and they performed great. Additionally, you won't have to worry about upgrading valvetrain due to the cams, but only due to revlimit.
350whp DD shouldn't be an issue at all, however I would suggest to go with a higher compression piston than 8.0:1, the car will be a slug out of boost.
I too would go with a GSR trans, but that's just me.
