Default need advice on turbo build

i did a search and it came it up with a few setups but i really wanted more current opinions with what is available today and if its right for my power goal.this is my first build and turbo setup. ive played around with superchargers and they were fun but just wasnt keeping up @ top end. so i thought id invest on turbocharging, i did the Evo route and that just wasnt as fun to drive as my honda (go figure) so that is what led me to my current project. My power goal is somewhere around 500 (20psi possible?), and for daily driver run it around 5-8 psi. its a street daily driver, i dont plant to drag it religiously nor do auto cross.

anyways ill get rolling here

B18c1 Motor:
Head:
Stock GSR Cams
Omnipower Valvetrain (one of the parts im deciding if i should get or not)
STR Cam Gears

Transmission:
Exedy Stage 2
I know im going to need a LSD, so ill take recommendations...

Block:
GE Sleeving
CP 9:1, now on this im not sure what bore size i should choose, i need help understanding what size is good. Ive seen ppl run 84.5, 85mm ect ect...
A few guys have recommended Manley rods for my build and went against choosing eagle rods.

Fuel & Ignition:
440 cc injectors, what size should i upgrade too?
Walbro 255
STR Fuel Rail
Also will my stock ignition be ok? or should i upgrade?

EMS:
Hondata s200b

Turbo Setup:
Full Race Stg 4 GT (GT35R)

Other misc parts:
Hasport Mounts (my rear mount said bye bye)
full race traction bars
lowered with sprint springs (def gonna have to upgrade this)

thats all i can think of right now. sorry i put down so much. i just need some building guidance here, i really dont wanna fubar this one up. thanks in advance everyone, this has become an expensive project so far

You will need to sleeve this B18C1 regardless of what anyone says about tuning on stock sleeves on a dynomometer. That is the SAFEST route as well as your tuning management.
