B16 turbo build suggestions...
So, I have a boosted stock B16 and it is A LOT of fun... but like most that get into boosted applications it becomes an addiction and I am wanting to get a little deeper into the rabbit hole... My goal for a boosted stock B16 was/is somewhere between 260-300whp and now I can pretty much run down most stock V8 sports cars within reason (GTO, 5th gen mustang, new Camaro, etc.). Not sure what a good goal regarding whp is. We have 91oct readily available here and I am about to purchase another B16 to actually start building and take it to the next level. Suggestions on a "tried-n-true" parts list...??? I want the capability to run mid-high 10's. What does it take? TheShodan and Schister66 have been great guidance and I look forward to the insight you guys that have "been there and done that" have... Thanks for the progress you guys have helped me achieve to this point btw! :D
p.s. I rock a 94 gutted hatch btw.

It's a Garret 57trim .63A/R w/ RC engineering saturated 550's. I know I'll definitely need bigger injectors but not sure what supporting mods and engine parts are going to get me there safely... I've been looking at evanstuning.com at their suggestions and they've got some good stuff. Just interested to see what you guys think.
s362 turbo gsr cams stock bore block bottom end build and head built but stock port job made 583 and running tens in a 2650lbs car....might be going up for sale shortly

cookie cutter setup would be stock sleeve setup with a set of stock size or 81.5mm pistons cp/je/wiseco etc., eagle rods, supertech valves, springs and retainers, gsr/itr cams, gt30r. this is a tried and true 500whp 10 second setup. even the 57 trim you have now could get you into or damn close to 10's.

in a gutted hatch... 450whp should put you in the 10s with good driving...
ur turbo isnt good for anything past 450whp anyway...
Just get pistons/rods...1000cc injectors... ITR cams and supertech valvetrain so you can rev to 9k... And you'll be in the 10s... 24.5 slicks and a driver mod...

Aside from that, all good info guys! I appreciate it! As far as bearings and things like that... OEM or something else?

acl bearings should suffice. I'd just rock the 57 trim till it's maxed out and run it at the track, i've seen heavier cars around 450hp run 10's, so it's doable!
i had the same turbo with my b16 setup was simple eagle rods,srp pistons 9:1 compression stock port head just itr valvetrain stock intake manifold ebay intercooler custom made mini ramhorm manifold 1000 cc injectors on race gas made 450 turbo wouldnt make anymore when 11.12 at 126 in a integra had a little left in it
