Default turbo build

ok so long story short, i was going to get valve seals done and now its lead to me semi building my motor. motor is b16a2

the head is at the machine shop now getting done. im sticking with stock valvetrain for now with GSR cams.

as for my bottom end, im going with wiseco forged standard bore turbo pistons 9:1, with eagle forged rods w/ARP rod bolts. ACL race bearing kit, and polished crank...

im using a honda headgasket kit and ARP head studs.

as for my turbo set-up im using a RCautoworks log mani with a garrett t3/t4 .50 trim .62ar 3" downpipe to 3"test pipe w/3" thermal cat back...

my question is what kind of power can i expect this motor to hold up with... im just looking for ideas so i know how much i could push the motor and stay on the safe side

On pump gas (92-93oct) you should reach 340-350whp. If you ran a larger turbo (like the 57 trim) or higher octane fuel (like E85) you could push it further. With your current setup, i dont see you making any more than about 375whp safely...

If you have the money for it, a set of ITR cams would nicely compliment your setup and help you make a little more power all around.
