i would get the vtec add so u would be able to add cams and ull get like 10 more whp from just the head. It will help your goal of 250whp out.
also, why are u using a t3 super 60, get a bigger one.. i have a t3/t4 turbonetic one for sale just like my picture let me know if u want it. It will be almost half price of the t3 super 60 u plan on buying..

What about bov, piping, intercooler, couplings, clamps, etc...

If you are going to build the use lower compression pistons, you should change the rods and mains. I would get a new oil pump. You will need to use all brand new gaskets on everything. You will need new headstuds.....might as well get arp studs.

This whole set-up will cost you in the $10,000 range. I don't see spending that much. I would swap a K motor with basic bolt on's, k-pro and lsd. You will have less whp and even less tq, but will have better traction and a better base to build off of.

I know it will cost ridiquosly much when its complete.
As far as told 02LX he will be good with aes ems and dezod's t3/t4 kit.
Even if he will screw first D17, there will spare re$erves for a second one.
Building engine involves so much work and $, I'm scared to think about it...
On the same note, I think it is more reasonable to get safe 200-220 whp with just bolt on kit, rather then building whole engine for 250whp..

Yea I am not looking forward to blowing my engine especially since this is my daily driver. I think I will go with dezod kit, or a TSI kit with the T25 and upgrade to the T3/T4 later

If you deside to upgrage to t3 from t25, then you will need new downpipe, t/25-t3 mani adaptor, new intercooler pipe and may be intake pipe..
so there is quite a bit of $ involte into upgrading.
You may want to start off with t3/t4 right away.

yea i was doing some thinking on the whole cost issue. i looked at the k20, but that would run me around 6500+ for everything, while turbo would run around 5000, so i think it is obvious which route to take
