Default Am I safe to Turbo?

So I have been doing a lot of research trying to figure out and understand Pros and Cons of putting on a turbo for my B20b. I have seen a lot of people only feeling comfortable with 10psi but I personally don't know if that will get me to my goal of right around 350whp. I have seen that sleeves are also a pile of crap for b20's and I am just as of tomorrow buying a new b20b since I blew up my last one and I don't want to have that happening again. So my question for you guys Is what maintenance should I do to my motor itself to ensure its not gunna blow. along with what kind of turbo set up should I look at? I'm looking a spending about 1500-2000$ on my set up including a hondata s300 But any advice/ help would greatly be appreciated! The set up will be in a 1994 GSR

You should sleeve it and rebuild it with forged internals and ARP hardware lol.

You should go to the Forced Induction forum, read the FAQ 10 times, then repost. You'll make more sense and get a better response. You will start to think of things like drivability, traction and powerband, over PSI and peak WHP (which mean nothing).

For a reliable 350whp, I would go with CSS (cylinder support system) to reinforce the sleeves, They guarantee to 400whp, so I think sleeving would be overkill at this power level. Then of course Forged rods and 84.5mm pistons, new oem main/rod bearings, ARP headstuds and a new oem head gasket.
