Default B20vtec turbo build

Hello All,

I am currently building a B20 Vtec Turbo. I know that the block has been said to have weak sleeves. So I am going to get the engine resleeved and put a new set of piston and connecting rods to accomidate the Turbo. So my question is does anybody have any advice or opinion on what kind of Piston, connecting rods, and even a turbo kit that i can use that will be reliable and show good results im shooting for 400+ hp. Ive been doing alot of research and i still will look things up for myself i just want to have so ideas from people who have already tired this. So thank you for all your help!

CP pistons, Eagle connecting rods, Darten sleeves, machine shop, ramhorn manifold, walrbro in tank, a proper fuel/air management setup, turbo gogogo!

ill let you know how mine turns out. I have the same setup for a B16 I just mentioned and hopefully am aiming for 400 DD. Might have it dynoed later this week if I can make an appt. soon.

honestly though you are better off posting this in the force induction forums.

OP: before you go posting this in the Forced Induction forum, check the FAQs first (in F-I), becuase your questions are common, and have been answered numerous times.
