    Get a turbo kit. But do RESEARCH!! I spend my whole year in Iraq looking at turbo parts and I went with BoostJunkyz turbo kit for the quality and price. I almost went full race but that high in my opinion but here is a list to start looking at.
    Turbo Kit with a PTE6262 or GT30r
    Fuel pump
    Injections ID1000s or FIC1000
    Exhaust 3"
    Clutch
    Motor Mounts
    Gauges Pod
    Gauges AFR Boost at minimum
    Flashpro!!!!

    Don't forget a fuel pump. And depending on what kit you go with, quality oil feed/return and quality water hoses for the turbo.

    I have an 8th gen fa5. Custom turbo kit on 7.5 psi. Had an srt4 guy tune me (first mistake) and only made 210 whp due to boost falling off at top end by half. Fixing some stuff this weekend and getting retuned next week by DK Goodrich. I was also unsure of internals because I had heard our internals are only good for 310whp but DK assured me they are good for much more. Said he has tuned plenty of k20s making 400-500whp on stock internals pushing 12-15 psi. I'm pumped to see the outcome of this retune.

    Yea kinda what I'm starting to think. So I'm going to the Honda king around my parts. Lol. Excited to see what my baby can really do. I'm scared though bc my clutch is only rated to 257ft/lbs torque

    My entire block is stock. I'm more afraid of throwing a rod or lifting the head

    You won't if you're tuned properly and treat the car right
