Save your money until you maybe turbo the car.
Define "good". What I think is good you may not.

If the Y8 is healthy, boost it. To make it more reliable, port the oil pump and galley and some ARP rod bolts and you'll be good to go for boost.

STAY OFF EBAY FOR BOOST PARTS

10PSI from what, a T28, GT60? It makes a big difference. From what you've said so far, as long as the motor is healthy, you don't need to do internals.

If your not planning on big numbers, then you wont need rods and pistons.

till the boost drug hits you, then youll want more and more

Im gonna run with a t3/t4 turbo my brother had i dont remember the trim. Knowing me if i like how it drives im gonna boost up and might not have the money to buy the internals since i always have unexpected expences

As long as the motor is healthy, factory internals can handle that. If you want to up the boost later, you can either spend a couple grand on forged internals and still have a ceiling, or you can call up Darton. Fully built, sleeved block ready for stupid power for about $3500, last I talked to them. If you don't want to spend more than you have to, skip the middle "just pistons and rods" step, because you'll probably be buying new ones when you sleeve.

Yeah makes sense

A lot of parts are okay to buy off ebay. Lines, piping, IC, etc etc are okay. You'll even save a little bit. But it's a 50/50 shot with ebay turbos. Not worth it. My friend had an ebay turbo and the shaft got messssssed up.

OP, just do your research. You'll learn what you need to do. Don't rush into it.
