Default How to build up my b18c1.............................

Heres the deal, I have a 1995 Civic Dx Coupe with a 95 USDM gsr swap. Its pretty stock just I/E. My rings are totally fried i blow an unbelieveable amount of smoke to where its almost embarassing. I wanted to sell my car but then i decided i wouldnt get nearly half the money back that put into it. So the next logical step is to keep it and make it better. I want to rebuild my motor and turbo it. Im not looking for anything huge i was thinking just a nice drag kit or maybe even revhard or something. I want to rebuild my car to where i can run as much boost as possible yet be safe enough for a daily driver and were its a little dependable, considering im 17 and am still in high school. I just need opinions on exactly what parts i would need and such, i know forged pistons, rods, i want a blockguard, if i can bore the cylinder head out maybe .15 or so and get sleeves and such. Im not sure on what to do about the valve train, like what would be the best to do. Just give me all the input you can. I plan on doing most of this myself with some help some a friend of mine. Im not looking for exactly what parts to buy but more on the specs of the part. bore, stroke, compression. All that shiznit. Also keep in mind im 17 and dont have a huge amount of money in my atm account Thanks in advance for any input.

Where did you get the motor and how much did you pay for it? A rebuild sounds nice, especially if you're going to boost. A lot of people would reccommend JE pistons and Eagle rods.
Sorry didnt help much.
