What parts do i need for a B16A turbo build, and what can i keep ..

Sorry title is vague
Planning to fit a turbo in mid january time as oil rings need replacing anyway so may aswell bring plans forward ......I have a B16A that has hondatwincam works (feels) camshafts fitted along with the valvetrain to match it also has a feels ECU to match this. My aim would be 290 - 320 bhp on safe boost.....
Do i need to replace the stock pistons and conrods for this power or will stock hold this power??
Can i keep my Feels cams and valvetrain or will they be to wild for a turbo setup ???? am i better off with CTR cams or something similar...

Depends on how the lobing is set up on the feels cam. Really you have to consder j
how Many lbs you want to run. If you're shooting for anything more than 8-10 psi, you need a thicker headgasket to lower compression as well as low comp pistons heads. Stronger connecting rods andhead studs. For high 200's, your looking at about 12-15 psi in my book.

Ps this needs moved to the forced induction forumo
