Why???

Why not build for 100 psi then..

Read a little more and youll find that boost is just a tool to get to your horsepower goal.. I've raced a turbo sohc running 15 psi and burned his *** badly, I was only running 5 psi at the time.. hmmmmm..

If that's not including the turbo setup...

Benson D16 block
CP Pistons
Pauter Rods
Crower Valvetrain

People always say "Im going to build for 400whp", yet, have no idea what 200whp feels like. You might be completely content with 200whp, and you will save yourself alot of money, and time. I would suggest building slowly to your goal.

True.. If this is your first setup your probably going to blow a motor or two learning how to do it all.. If you go with stock d-series motors then you can blow them and get another really cheap..
