Default the best for a rebuild on a h22

I have a jdm h22, I'm building the engine to go in a 97accord coupe.
my question is.. I've looked at all kinds of pistions and rods and cranks and cams, theres alot out there. who makes the best ones!! I'm looking to run a T3 T04e turbo
from turbonectics. Who makes the best sleeves? I'm not going to cut corners on this, I want the best I can buy. This is not a daily driven car. i want boost around the 15psi range or higher. I was thinking about A.E.B.S sleeves. how do you calculate what size injectors you need? thanks your help guys

has the motor already been installed in the car or is your accord still a virgin?

a lot of this is really a matter of opinion...some will say they favor one company over another, and then others will oppose...some good brand names i've heard of in terms of pistons are CP, JE, and Wiseco. Rods: Crower, Golden Eagle (a little less expensive)...Cams, there's regrinds (which some people advise against, but they are ground to your own specs) and then there are generalized cams placed on the market for general applications..Sleeves, I wouldn't go with anything but Darton, but that's just me. There's a guy somewhere on this board that installs them in a special way by heating them and cooling them differently. I'd personally try and get sleeves done by him, though I don't remember his name.

Do some research on this board in the F/I forum, I'm sure there's more than enough info for you to at least get started there.

Then I would advise against a turbonetics turbo. They are decent turbos, but I've also heard a few bad stories...Check out the HKS turbos. They are expensive, but damn good!

hey thanks nick you basicaly told me the same things I've always heard.
it's like ford or chevy just all opinon. I looked at the pics of the cars in here and was wondering what these guys are running. No the engine is sitting on a stand.
I'm not going to touch the engine until I have everything. I hate regrinds on cams any companies you know of make custom cams, with out a regrind??
I've been asked a hp figure I want and I'm not sure what the engine can produce at what boost, so.... I forgot all about darton! My main worry is the main caps on the crank I've seen a few cracked from high hp. I've been to alot of import drag races and seen alot of h22's. Wanted to know what combination works best. I've heard alittle about scat cranks and rods. this is my first high performance build, and I really don't want to spend all this money and end up blowing something stupid. I saw a pic of a burnt orange turbo accord with a carbon trunk lid, in the pic thread, his enigne looks awsome. what kit is that? or did he piece things to make it it says we todd did racing at the bottom of the pic
