Depending on what boost you'll be running, you may be nearing the limits of some of the interior pieces of your F22B1.
Unless you rework the innards, any move to such things as Nitro should be accompanied by a trash bag, a push broom and some speedy-dry. That way when your engine grenades itself and spews it's innards all over the street, you'll be prepared to clean up after yourself.

he has it turbo'ed ... theres no need for an intake since he has intercoolers and a turbo specific exhaust head

how long have you been running the turbo on it?

has it been tuned on a dyno yet?

if you're making enough power, forged internals (ie complete rebuild) would "beef it up"

agree with adams do the internals f22b1 is a great boost engine, cast iron block and all but the internals can only handle so much, maybe start out with a cam valves and sleeves then pistons and crank and bearings in the long run

If you are just wanting to "beef" it up.. I would recommend the Bizimoto lvl 1.2 turbo cam "regrind" its good for 60+whp.. Not saying you would indeffinitely gain 60whp but your "butt dyno" will sure be able to calculate the difference.. Id say while your ordering grab valves/ valve springs aswell.. You will be more than pleased with your purchase.. That is if you have a decent tuner.. Dont go putting NOS on your ****, Methanol injection?? seriously? its a DD..
Anyway.. My .02

easy does it...

not cast iron block, iron cylinder liners in an aluminum block. kinda different...

why sleeve it, then later do pistons crank and bearings... two, three rebuilds? shouldn't he save up and do it all at once?
