Default The best motor for turbo in a crx.

As the title says, I am going to build a B-series motor with a turbo, going all out, pistons/rods/crank/headwork, what do you think is the best combo between head/blocks and what pistons/rods would you go with. Or is it better to just buy the entire thing built by a company and which company do you recommend.

Search is your friend. Toda cams and Skunk 2 valves are good. As far as for the engine any LS block will do with a non lsd tranny.

there never if a best way of doing something when you think "out of the box" hybrid motor/motor swap/whatever. you just go with preference. I'd say get an LS block.. or even whole ls motor who cares about vtec when you're boosting. I say ls, cause it's 1.8l over 1.6 [I have a b16.. need more tq] and ls because.. like I said you don't need vtec.
and about 'going to a shop and paying htem' for everything.. that's wack.. just peice together a turbo kit [just go to FI and tell them goals, etc and they should show you the right way] and then you could probably get a shop to INSTALL it ..
