Icon2 2000 civic gsr boosting question HELP!

I wanna get a turbo kit for my gsr swap, and i only wanna run 8psi max on it, and i was wondering if anyone knew from experience exactly which upgrades i should get to keep my engine safe and reliable for years to come and still very quick. Also i have absolutely no clue on which turbo kit to get, so if someone could point me in the right direction that'd be nice. This is my daily driver and my budget is like 3-5k ish give or take, so let me know what ideas you got please, thank you.

I pieced my kit together. Using ebay, and the marketplace. I did how ever get name brand turbo,BOV,and wastegate.

Im running a stock b16, tuned at 12psi, making around 300whp 200wtq. Do a compression test and leak down test to see how healthy your motor is.

The BIGGEST thing to keeping your motor reliable for years is the tune. Thats the biggest thing not to go cheap on. Go to a well known tuner and you should be good to go.
