Read about turbos, go turbo. You say you want cheap? Well nitrous gets expensive fast.

Blk intercooler isn't flashy...is it? Intercooler in the bumper isn't the only option.
300whp on a juiced poormans is not a very practical power goal.
Boost it dude.

Too many variables to give a solid answer..

Lets get your engine built 1st before dreaming of magic numbers

That's almost 13:1 c/r with a 100 shot, what tat will do is create a LOT of heat, and melt the motor unless you have a very very good tune.

Forget about all the forged this that and the other, use your gsr block with stock gsr rods and stock gsr pistons, and your b16 head, thats 9.8:1 c/r, perfectly fine for boost. The stock internals will handle 300 whp boosted no problem.

Yes you can make 300 whp safely on stock internals and with 91 octane.

Some motors are able to rev higher because they are built that way, stronger valve springs and retainers etc.

If the head you have really does have dual valve springs and titanium retainers, and when you do the rebuild you use ARP rod bolts and headstuds, your motor should have no problem reving to 9000 rpm.

The question is going to be, will it make power up that high, you have to understand that just reving higher wont make more power, sometimes you lose power when reving too high, but that is something that can be played with on the dyno when it gets tuned.

How much boost is needed to make 300 whp depends on what turbo you use, the bigger it is, the less boost (psi) it needs to make power, but also the bigger it is, the more Lag time you have, so you have to find a happy medium.

A 50 trim t3/t4E will probably fit your needs very well, it can make 300 whp no problem on that motor, but will still spool up pretty well.

Check out a garrett 50 trim t3/t04E or a precision 5431 ( same thing) Please for the love of god dont buy a chineese $200 turbo from ebay, you will regret it.
