Default B18 Rod options

i need some help i want to be rev happy and take my ls bottom end up to like 9.5 grand. i don't want to spend a lot of loot. i want to know what are a reliable set of rods that will work with a ls crank. i'm predicting around 250 to the floor under my command. who is the best with balanceing honda stuff or is the machine shop around me just good enough

what my plans to make 250 ish was to do a jackson supercharger. runing 7-8lbs of boost. and throw in a little shot of nitrous for the top end like a 30 shot or so

ls block
Z10 girdle
JE pistions
GSR head
jackson supercharger
20 shot of nitrous

my hope is to have torque in the low end and keep some type of reasonable gas milage. in the top end i want it to be sickinning

from my understand
turbos/superchargers increase gas milage.

the thirty shot really would feel like a sixty shot because it is getting compressed

i still need to do reasearch and talk with my oucle who has been tunning hondas for quite a few years now. to talk about my compression and the boost
