Default DA build

I am new to this forum and just jumped back into the import scene. I recently acquired a 1991 Acura Integra RS with 250k+. Yea pretty high mileage but after replacing the water pump and timing belt its been running clean w/o any leaks. Actually it was a good buddy of mine that sold it to me. Well anyways, I plan on going LS turbo daily driven with over 200hp if possible. Here is what I have so far;

extra b18a1 motor w/o dizzy 165k
Crower Rods
SRP pistons
JDM front bumper
XSI steering wheel
GSR fat fives

Soon to order;

Crower dual valve springs
ARP bolts
Block Guard
OBD1 conversion
Walbro 255lph fuel pump
440cc injectors
Turbo Kit - still looking around
Cometic gasket

Anyone have suggestions? I also thought about LS/V but read too many issues with reliability. I know its all in the tune but I also want to make sure the motor is bulletproof before I slap in a turbo kit. The car will be driven daily, about 120 miles per day round trip Monday-Friday. Then maybe some weekend fun.

Congrats on your new project boosted da's are fuuuun
However, there are a few things on your list i would reconsider-
1.Blockguard. imo, it is useless. do a search here on turbo ls setups, there are a number of users here that would agree. I daily drive mine with JUST arp head studs on 15psi with NO problems. tune,tune,tune!
2.cometic h/g. imo, it to, is useless. i have used it on a previous motor, and it offers nothing the factory honda one dosen't.
3.turbo kits. there are a number of ppl here who just piece together there own kits for thier build as it looks like your going to do, and saved major$$ in the process. somthing to consider
If you do just want to do a kit, ebay...noooooooooo try www.turbokits.com to get a general idea of cost, performance, parts needed, etc....G/L with your build, and lemme know if you have any qusetions, i been there
