Default Turbo F20b build - what do you think?

Sup HT, wanted to see what ya'll think of my new and improved turbo f20b build in my 5g prelude. I'm replacing just about all of my old stuff, as I kind of half assed the job the first time around and made shitty power.

- Godspeed gt2876r at 12+ psi OR Garrett gt2871r at (?) psi
- Water/Meth Injection
- AEM FIC
- 3" turbo back exhaust
- Cast Iron log manifold
- 650cc Precision Turbo injectors
- Competition Clutch Stage 4 (6 puck spring disc)
- Stock Internals, 11:1 compression
- Big *** intercooler with 2.5" piping

I can already see where the weak spots are. Cast Iron log manifold and the godspeed turbo. But money doesn't grow on trees, and I'm pretty broke. I could use the garrett turbo but its much smaller than the godspeed and I'm afraid of running too much pressure on 11:1 compression, even with the methanol injection. Anyways, I digress, what do you think HT?

Dont use the log manifold, from my own experience with this engine. Get some cam gears, these will help with valve overlap as the vtec lobe is quite aggressive for boost. Last of all these engines are too good to wreck, so if you haven't got enough cash to buy the right parts then you shouldnt boost it.
