i have a 98 ls turbo i am putting a rev hard kit on it with cometic head gasket. the motor has 60 000 miles is it possible to still get 100 000 with factory internals if i run 5 psi and no more than 10 as a daily driver and what tuning and maintence should i have to do to acheive this

You can run any set-up that long with proper set-up, tuning, and maintnence.
Do your self a favor read the posts on this board and look here: GOOGLE.COM . If your here on this forum long enough you'll learn anything you could ever want to know about turbocharging.

u dont need a cometic head gasket, the compression on the LS is fine, some people would say its perfect.

try searching theres lots of stuff about succesful LS turbo's on this site.

good fuel management/tuning, bigger injectors, intank fuel pump....that sorta thing

if you're serious go with something like hondata and you'll be happy with it, but if you aren't completely dedicated a safc should do you fine

man 10 psi is alot of damn boost for stock internals. Do yourself a favor and rebuild for that type of psi. Yea all these guys are gonna say " Oh it's all in the tuning, etc....)" then when you blow the damn thing you are going to hate yourself. No matter what anybody tells you hondas were not built from the factory to withstand BOOST!!!!!
