Default engine rebuild upgrades

i am planing on rebuilding my engine (F22A6) this summer and i am thinking of buying RE forged pistons and rods to prepare it for turboing is there anything else besides the normal parts that i might want to buy to allow me to run high boost. motor wise i mean i can upgrade fuel and ignition latter i just want engine parts sense i will already have it apart

Don't forget to include things like bearings, seals and machine work into your budget...

new valves, valve job, new or upgraded valve springs, guides... balance the rotating assembly...

These are just common rebuilding things... not really turbo specific...

if you wanna run high psi on an F you would be well advise to do a minimal sleeve at the very least. Decking is also a real good idea and cheap too
