Default Internal build-up?

Hey everyone.
A few quick questions. I am hoping to purchase a D16A6 within the next month or so. I want to build it up before I drop it into my '91 HF.

As of right now it just be a straight forward swap along with Si tranny. Next spring I plan on adding a turbo for it.

How can I build the motor (what should I do) to be able to handle 10-12psi boost?
Better yet any other suggestions on app. 220 whp? (other than a B-swap)

Which internal parts are proven to handle boost and stay reliable?

Any suggestions on which head to use with the turbo?

Sorry to slam you with all these questions, but I've never built a motor before. I am looking for any kind of info on this;

articles, books, websites...etc. since this will be my first honda swap.

Thanks

Martin
