Spring Turbo Prep

[tucents]

I am getting ready to putt out my GSR engine and prep it for a turbo, my goal for this car it to make around 300-350 hp. I know i have to beef up my internals and do compression and leakdown test to make sure the engine is healthy enough to even run a turbo.

Can you guys recommend what i should get first, and what brand you guys recommend. I dont want a freaking piston coming through my hood.

MUST HAVES:
Low Compression Pistons
Forged CR
ARP head Studs
Cometic Head Gasket.
Better Cams, Shafts, Retainers, Keepers Springs.
ECU?

ecu should be a OBD1 ecu with hondata preferably s300

You would make more low end power and tourqe with aftermarket stock compression pistons.

Supertech, Aries, Je pistons all depends how much money you (9.5:1 or 9.0:1)
Eagle rods
ARP head bolts
Felpro or stock head gasket (hold over 500whp)
Stock b18c1 cams are pretty damn good, are you talking b17? Then just throw in some C1 cams
Stock head
Hondata s300

A stock head will rev out to like 9K

1000cc injectors

and with this build how much do you expect me to be putting out with a tune

well just one of thoughs 1000cc injectors is about 200+ so do the math on the rest haha but you gotta pay to play

If you go with 10:1 compression pistons you will also spool quicker and make more power with less psi vs someone running 9:1 compression. Its one of the things I wish I would've done differently with my build honestly. I would go 10:1 if I were to do it all over
