What head? Staying non vtec or going with a vtec head? What size turbo? How are you tuning it?

Remember boost doesnt kill motors, detonation kills motors! Its all in the tune man. Also remember that a .48ar turbo wont make the same amount of power as a .82ar turbo at the same psi levels

if you got the motor apart already you might as well throw in some aftermarket rods and pistons in there
