Default Winter build, what should I do... suggestions...

alright guys...
I have a b16 turbo setup that ive been runnin this year..
T304E tuned for 8psi and 370cc injectors...

Made 240whp and 167ft/lbs

I want to build a block this winter and im not sure what i should do.. MY options are:
B16 block
B17 Block with spun bearing..
b18a1 block

what block should i go with and what kind of build should I do... what will i need..what kind of price am I lookin at?
I wanna go for over 300whp...
I know im gonna need new injectors.. and im gonna look at 9.1-9.5 compression..

Any suggestions... let me have them...

B17 block with all new bearings. ~$300-400 for bearings (b17 for effect )
JE 9:1 forged pistons ~$400
eagle h-beam forged rods ~$300
sleeved (benson, or whatever sleeves you want) ~$1200

I'd go with 1000cc injectors ~$300, and Neptune ~$5-600 i think

As for the turbo kit..
Garrett GT35R
Neukin Ramhorn manifold
blowoff valve of choice
44m TiAL wastegate
and whatever bigass intercooler will fit under your bumper.

Depends on your power goal really, people make upwards of 500whp on stock sleeves. Pistons and rods will take out the weak link in the bottom end, so you can rev high and make 500+.

Don't risk pushing that much power with stock sleeves. If you're gonna go big, do it right. Sleeve the block, and get forged internals.. the end.
