Help with running 20 LBS of boost on LS MOTOR...
I was wondering what all I need to get my engine ready to run up to 20 pounds of boost??? I'd appreciate it if people would add or take stuff off my list..... here goes nothing
 Valves, Springs, Retainers,... Cams Cam Gears Pistons n rings Rods cylinder sleeves??? high boost head gasket cylinder brace??? Crank shaft???? Act Clutch what stage??? aluminum fly wheel Axles??? cylinder walls reinforced??? something welded behind them ?? fuel pressure regulator bigger injectors fuel rail? fuel pump intake manifold??? throttle body after all that,...... 3" exhaust... turbo (garret t3/t4 for 20 lbs)? blow off valve wate gate boost controller turbo timer exhaust manifold intercooler pipes clamps n more pipes n clamps boost guage air fuel ratio guage this will not be a daily driver,... money is not really an issue,... my uncle is a mechanic and he can help me out with internals and stuff like that also I'm not going to a shop I'm going to try to buy all the internals and stuff with a wholesale license to have a little something left over for turbo install...... I've reaserched stuff about tubos on the net and all i usually find out is how they work not detailed specific instructions on whats needed,.... would I be able to drive the car normally of if I swapped out internals and every thing else installed???

if you don't have the knowledge to build it yet, then don't build it yet.

Why do you think he's asking here? He is trying to get the knowledge neccesary to build it.
I'm no expert but that seems like all the parts I can think of...

if you are thinking about safety get
MOTOR> JE low comp domed pistons Crower forged balanced crank sleeves str block guard FUEL> rc 550 injectors walboro 255 lph fuel pump venom fuel rail with pressure regulator and a k&n fuel filter and run hi ass octane, save them pistons. MONITORING> apex'i afc (finely tuned.) hks turbo timer DRIVELINE> RAXLES! that's just my opinion.... you have a good motor to be shooting all that boost through in the first place..... but all that shit will help save your ass, not to mention you'll have a strong ass motor..... all the other stuff you put will help you out performance wise.... i'd look into a quaife lsd, that's a big deal right there and a z-10 cross member.. your launches will be outta control, i think your stock valve train could be sutible.... skunk2 is producing a cam for turbo'ed DOHC VTEC motors but no ls, maybe crower or crane. has somthing in store. i hope that helped.

no need for lower compression pistons. 8.5:1 is low enough. email [email protected] he's running 20 psi on his stock block LS engine (with only blockguard as his engine modification. upgrades that i know of are hondata engine management system, custom T3/T4 turbo, 440cc fuel injectors, blockguard, and some other few little things. he runs 11.8 on the quartermile now.

ok, here's my setup....you can build something similar to this....
b18b shortblock: JE 9.0:1 pistons .20 over stock sleeves RE blockguard Eagle Rods everyting has been balanced b16a head: totally stock excpet for JG IM manifold mustang TB Fuel: paxton kamikaze(or was it signature)fuel pump customized stock fuel rail 72lbs MSD injectors Aeromotive 1:1 FPR engine management: Haltech E6K customized to work with stock honda harness... All this work was done by me, except for the haltech conversion. I also just got a pair of DSS stage 3 axles with hubs
