thanks again guys!
the motor is gonna be coming out within the next few weeks for winter... i am planning to re-build the bottom end for boost because it began to get a slight knock so im taking the good with the bad.
heres my plans as of right now (FEEDBACK WOULD BE APPRECIATED)
weisco 8.8-9.0 pistons
eagle H beam rods with ARP rod bolts
get crank checked for trueness
either OEM honda bearings or ACL race bearings
walbro 255
bigger injectors (not sure what size)
get block honed... OR bored over .2 NEED OPINIONS
godspeed full t3/t4 turbo kit
im planning to keep my stock head with skunk2 stage 1 cams
and i also picked up buddy club cam gears
i will be tuning on Hondata s300 which i already have

If your block is in good shape I would just hone it to ensure a good piston ring seal. Injector size will depend on how big of a turbo you will be running. Honda bearings FTW! Why not get some headwork done? Like a good port and polish? Maybe even get the crank balanced? ARP headstuds too? Just suggestions.

Im planning to have the block honed, another thing that was on my mind is boring it it a 1.8? not really sure if its worth it or what the risks or benfits would be.
im planning on getting the t3/t4 godspeed turbo
i was also planning on the ARP studs and definatly getting the crank looked at
as for headwork this is sort of a budget winter build. I plan to have it done by april in time for Dyno Days at King Motorsports in New Berlin Wisconsin and im not sure how the funds will be coming so i figured i could always build the head mid summer or something. but in the event that something is wrong with the head i will replace what needs replacing.
ANY OPINIONS ON COMPRESSION????

i know that people are either for or against the whole ebay kits. my thoughts were that its a brand name off of ebay. its affordable for me.
also i know someone from around where i live and he has been on an ebay kit for a year and a half now.
I dont see why not. my plan is to run all of the kit but look into a new wastegate and be prepared for the turbo to go out... maybe get a brand name turbo or something to replace it once i get going. and im not worried about the manifold cracking cause i know pleanty of good welders. Another reason i want the godspeed kit is cause of the way the IC piping is routed. cause i shaved the stock airbox hole
