Default building engines for turbo..recommandation?

Ok..think it's time to start collecting parts so i can build the engine in dec. now I need to know from you turbo gurus on which parts I should get? I'm planning on boost 15psi on street and atleast 18-20 on track. I have 00' gsr w/ fmax turbo, vafc, avc-r...I have the following parts in mind and need to know the rest

-JE Pistons 9:0:1
-Crower Connecting Rods
-Portflow Inner Valve Springs w/ titanium retainer <~already have it
-Skunk2 Camgears <~already got it
-Either Hondata or Power FC

Intake/Exhaust Cams?!? Which one should I get?
Flywheel..which brand?
blah blah blah

Let me know!!!!

I know you want to go fast but if you are gonna be boosting 18~20 lbs of boost, then you seriously have to start thinking about cooling. I suggest you to do something with the thermostat and all other like oil cooler and what not. See ya

if money is an issue stick with the stock flywheel but upgrade your clutch. if iti isn't a issue then go with a lightened one like a jun that'll help ya spool up faster but for the money i'd put it into something else like an exhaust or better wastegater or injectors or whateva. everything looks good, from what I've seen go with hondata. don't worry bout the cooling thing that that guy said. they are nice but not needed. stock gsr cams are fine.

Pistons, Rods, Radiator, Fans, Thermostat, Sleeves, Freshen up the head, Re-sleeve, Hondata, (actually hooking up your exhaust so you aren't running around with an open dp for the rest of the car's life... ), better clutch, slightly lighter flywheel while ur at it.

higher compression like 10:1 since your getting a stand alone you'll be able to tune it better and get more power out of it with less boost
