Most of what your looking for will be easy to find, I personally like CP Pistons but there are a lot of good companys out there. I would get in touch with one of the venders in the FS forum and get a Piston/Rod combo.

no you can take the cylinders out to 85mm but if you did the cylinders would be really weak and you would have to have it sleeved but you should be fine at 82mm unless your plannin on pullin big numbers

Most people believe that if you're going to turbo, then you don't really want to go over 81.50mm, but you can get away with 82mm.

I'd stay 81.5mm (you won't gain anymore power with 82mm from 81.5mm, and it has a better chance of holding). There are many debates regarding block guards. that's up to you.

20psi of pressure from WHAT turbo?
