If you plan to run more than 14 PSI you need to resleeve the block. Then get Eagle rods and JE or WISECO pistons. I would get WISECO, they come with their brand rings.
I didn't know you had that much $$$ or else I would have said to rebuild first, I was giving a cheaper alternative that still makes good power.
But get 9:1 compression, 8.5:1 will just cut out your bottom end power too much. You can run about 18 PSI with 9:1 compression on pump gas premium-93 octane. The Edelbrock kit can do 18 PSI no problem, that turbo that comes with it will spool EXTREMELY fast-especially with free flowing exhaust. Remember, you don't need any backpressure when you have a turbo. Plus that kit comes with a new manifold with a secondary fuel rail and 4 additional injectors. The only thing you need to get (besides exhaust)would be a high flow fuel pump, because your stock one won't provide enough fuel to compensate for 18 PSI.
