Default b16a2 / gsr turbo HELP!!!!!!!

Ok guys I just got a new build in mind and here is what I have
. Stock gsr head
. B16a2 block with block gaurd
. Eagle rods
. Stock crank
. Acl bearings
. P28 chipped with chrome
. I have both sets of si and gsr cams
. Skunk intake manifold
. Arp head studs
. Intercooler
. Garrett a/b 50 turbo
. 750cc injectors
. Bov and wastegate ( not sure on the size )
. AEM adjustable cam gears
. 3 bar map sensor
. B16 trans with gsr 5th gear
. 68mm throttle body
. 2.75 in exhaust from turbo back
. Greddy turbo muffler
. High flow cat
. obd 1 dizzy
. 255 walboro fuel pump
. Im not sure on pistons yet

So I just got all the turbo stuff and the block and trans last nite I also got the car too just traded a 98 accord with a slipping trans for it. The reason I am not using the b16 head is due to the fact the guy I got it from was racing and was going from 3-4 except he went from 3-2 and pistins hit the valves and destroyed head. But the block and rods were fine just the pistons were destroyed. I have a gsr head off of my b20vtec that I want to put on it. I am going to port and polish the gsr to get a better flow. I have never done a turbo build and I want to do it right. Also can I use the stock gsr pistons in this block which I know size wise they will fit but will they be safe to run on boost. Any help will be very appreciated thanks

Do more research.
Why do I say that? With a cursory glance over the list it looks like you have a clue but when you look closer you have big holes in it. It looks like you just threw together a bunch of parts that looked like they went together without really understanding how.

How do you plan on running stock pistons with Eagle rods?
What do you need a block guard for?
What is a Garret a/b 50?
Why the 750s?
Why the 68mm throttle body?
A chipped ECU on CROME? Do you think that all you need for engine management?
And the biggie, what horespower goal are you shooting for?

Do more research.

I threw all these parts out on the table to see if they would work I just picked up this turbo setup from a guy on craigslist and these where the specs he had. I have no idea what a a/b 50 is I am guessing it is a 50 trim compressor anyways I have a stock gsr block too but I wanted to use the eagle rods thats why I was gonna do a b16 withthe gsr head and if I need to buy different pistons like coated wiseco pistion 8.8-9.0 to 1 now as far as the block gaurd it is already installed in the b16. In which I have never seen a use for them but then again I have never done a boosted build before. The b16 head that was on it was trashed when the guy dropped down a gear by mistake. I know a stock honda crank can hold up to 8-9 hundred hp. Aslo I have not taken out the block yet to see the actuall extent of the damage done to the inside of the block and if it is not salvageable then I will go the other route and bore my gsr block to 81.5 and buy new pistions deck the head and block and then forged pistions. I just need an idea of what I should buy or how to build this engine.

I just picked up this

So let me see if I can understand this....

You're going to sell your B16 bottom end, buy a GSR Block/head, turbo it on the stock internals. Then tune it with 8-10 LB's of boost and hope to get 300 WHP?

I'm at a loss at what your question is.

Are you looking for dependable 300 WHP? Or are you asking us if you can get 300 HP out of a turbo'd GSR engine?

I have both the gsr and si blocks but only have a gsr head my question now is should I do forged internals or keep stock to acheive 300whp and yes I am getting rid of the b16 bottom now and just do strictly gsr block/head since ot has a longer stroke than b16

OP needs to read all of the FAQ in the forced induction forum 3-4 times. I am not making fun of you, just trying to point you to some good info.
