so i want to turbo a B18b in my del sol.

I'm pretty knowledgeable on turbos and what you need for a kit and all that.. but say i wanna do 20+ psi on the motor.. how much would i have to replace/rebuild?

whats a good turbo to use?

I already have a GSR tranny in my car and i'm either going with a B18B or C

ive never looked beyond 9 psi on a car. but now ive got money heh so what should i do?

I've heard a b20 has weak cylinder walls, but then again I know someone with 9 psi on one making around 400...Should have kept the ls tranny if ya goin boost.

just for some other misc parts to add to flysi's list:
ARP head studs
cometic head gasket (to match bore)

Are you gonna do ls/vtec or leave it non-vtec?
keep the DEL SLO
