You can leave the block alone if you want. As long as you keep it mild. If you're mechanically inclined you should probably install a block guard and some beefy headgasket, ARP head studs, etc.

Just reinforce what you can. And go to town. I've heard/seen people make 400whp on stock block h22's.

H22 are good for 300-350 turbo. After that sleeves piston rods are needed imo

Probably wouldn't be a bad idea to find a F22 block and go G2B.

Steel sleeves are a lot easier to deal with to keep things simple.

F22 are some underrated engines. Especially for turbo.

I think you got your answer, which you could have got by searching prior to posting. The sleeves and ringlands will go first but no one really knows your HP goal to see if those items need anything done to them in the first place.

C'mon man. Do some research. This aint it. I could tell you something and how would you know I was accurate? Go check the Hybrid forums and see what others have used successfully.

There are countless parts involved with a turbo kit and/or building a motor. Brand of what?

Most people who know what they are doing use half a dozen brands.
