Need help bosting H23a
My H23a is currently sitting on a bench at the moment (spun a bearing!) and since I plan to turbocharge soon (about 10psi with a Garrett T3/4) I figured I would bulletproof the internals while I was at it.
What are some good things to do to strengthen the engine before I run boost?
I had ideas of:
Forged 9:1 pistons (to run lower compression)
new valve springs
maybe new cams?
maybe shot peen the rods?
resleeve?
are there any other good ideas? I want to run about 10psi as a daily driver.
