I have a ls block with a b16 head. I want to know what parts do I need to get to build a reliable turbo engine. My goal is 450-500 horses, I already sent it out two golden eagle to get sleeved. And I have eagle rods also. And I want to know if srp ls piston work.

I wouldn't run the SRP's, I would go with a higher end piston. That power level is probably at the limit for those pistons reliably. Get a set or Arias or JE's and rock out, c-speedracing.com has a "compression calculator" that works pretty well. If the Eagle rods are the new style with the larger 3/8's rod bolts then you are good with those.
I'd say get some Arias pistons around 9.5-10:1 compression, eagle rods should be fine, throw in some aftermarket valvsprings so you have a little more rpm to play with and rock out. What parts do you have or need other than what you have listed?

JE/SRP are the same.

Then stick with the Arias for off the shelf applications.
