I've been thinking/researching a lot about this lately. This will be the second turbo build I do, first motor build ever.

My first turbo setup was an Ebay kit on a B16 in an EF hatch. I want this one to be done with quality parts this time around.

It will be going in an EK hatch, converted to OBD1.

I've decided to boost the y7 I have now, while I build the z6 on the side. I'm only planning on running about ~200hp, just to have a little fun on the streets.
This will be done with all the transmission parts on my list \/, as well as the traction bar. Might as well do it right to begin with.

I'm a little worried about boosting the y7, though.
Do you think I should mod the pump before I even attempt this?
What about head studs, do you think I REALLY need them at that power level? If I do, would I be able to use the same studs on the z6 that I buy for the y7?
What do you think should be done besides the typical tests (leakdown, compression) and replacement of seals/gaskets?

Motor - D16 z6
Block
75.5mm Vitara Pistons
FJD Custom Length Rods
GE Block Guard(already installed)
OEM Bearings
Hastings Rings
OEM Oil/Water Pump (Not sure if I should mod the oil pump. Like port and/or shim)
It has a lightweight pulley installed, not sure if I should keep it
or go with the stock one.

Head
Zex #59300 Cam (Stock Cam Gear)
Supertech Valvesprings/Retainers
Ported Exhaust
New Seals/Gaskets

Transmission
Mfactory LSD
Action 2MS Clutch
Stock Flywheel
Check all syncros for excessive wear and replace accordingly.

Suspension
Full Race Traction bar
Undecided on what coilovers to go with.

Here's where I need some input...

Turbo Goodies
Tial 38mm Wastegate
Greddy Type-R BOV
Mishimoto Intercooler
SPA Cast Iron Topmount
DSM 450cc Injectors (For now)
Tuned On Crome (For now)
Eventually going to use Ectune with the new motor.

I'm really stuck on what turbo to run. I'm looking for ~350hp (no more than 400hp). I want to run the least amount of boost to hit my goal, with the quickest spool time and won't die out before my ~8k rev limit.

Looking at these 3:
Bullseye .50 trim .55 a/r
Bullseye .57 trim .55 a/r
Go-Autoworks Spec turbo by Bullseye w/ .55 a/r

I left a few things out, but that's the important stuff.

Any and ALL help is GREATLY appreciated.

i would go with the stock pulley, save u from stretching the block ( happened to me and a couple of buddies), and spend the money and get hodata s300. awsome build by the way
