What do you guys think?
Alright, here's the proposed setup:
9x' Del Sol
B18c swap, 84mm sleeves, Pistons, Rods, CS, vavles, springs, retainers, stock cams, Gasket (looking for about 11 to 11.5-1 CR), polish and balance
Turbo (Turbonetics t4 probably), big IC, divorced wastegate (I want everyone to see the puffs), intake ducted to the front, custom 3" piping exhaust, not sure of injector sizes yet, but i plan to go big, MSD ignition system, fuel rail, and just about any other bolt-on that will work for some gain. Perhaps a 50 or 75 shot somewhere down the line. Looking to push 20+ psi, do you think the GSR tranny will be able to handle this? And should I maybe consider a larger TB? Any flames/suggestions welcome.

Everything sounds pretty tip top except for the compression ratio you want to run. If you are going to boost and spray on top of that, especially at 20 psi, then I highly suggest you go with a lower compression setup than 11.5/1. Try out something like some JE 9.5/1's or maybe even 9/1's, but still remember with that high of boost to correct it with the proper fuel management system. Other than that looks like you'll have a pretty badass Delly.

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention about the tranny. The GSR tranny will hold up fine, but I highly recommend getting a quaife and replacing the other factory weaklinks while you've got it apart. I would say replace the bearings where the output shaft and transverse shaft sit, and if this is going to be for mostly racing, try looking into the Liberty racing synchros. Its easier to do it all at once than tear into it many times. Believe me, I've done the long route plenty of times. But good luck and keep us posted on how it goes mr. moneybags.

11:1 cr is too much, especially for 20psi+nitrous? your gonna detonate somewhere down the line unless you have **** load of fuel and intense tuning(hondata os something). i'd say 8.5:1 to 9.1:1 pistons at the most.
LS tranny/lsd dude longer gears. also dont forget ARP headbolt studs, a must for turboh (imo) goodluck
