greddy turbo on ZC

i was looking around and on a couple of web pages ( http://members.tripod.com/cwbetb/index.htm , http://motionless.net/articles/zcturbo2.html ) i saw people putting greddy turbo kits made for 92 - 95 civics and they were putting them onto the jdm ZC motor. i didnt see to much boost for them. i think the max was 8psi.
do you know any companies that sell connecting rods, pistons, and i guess you would need new sleeves if you want to get some real high boost on the ZC.
i dont think crower makes rods or pistons and i havnt checked darton for sleeves.

Im doing the 92-95 civic Greddy turbo on my Zc later this year....

I think 8psi is the max you can run with the kit, but your pushing your luck with the Zc's stock rods. If you take some precautions, you should be fine.

I am getting a low compression headgasket, about 8.5/1, which should help the motor handle the boost. Also, I'll be using a Greddy ProfecB boost controller.....4psi every day driver - 7psi track, or when people wanna get cute. hehe...

I think the problem that most people run into is that they push the boost too much, and the stock rods can't handle it.
