i wasnt planning on using 24lb lol, the vitara pistons i was going to go with, hold anywhere from 16-20lbs of boost, hopefully i can get that with the mods i was going to use, the head will be built, and i know im going to use forged rods, with the vitara pistons to say the least.

Yeah bro, those Vitara pistons will hold a lot of boost believe it or not, you would be surprised.

you can make 300whp with vitaras , rods and bone stock head with the right setup
if ya run vitaras make sure u get the fj custom rods to take up that extra loss in compresstion running the vitaras
im doing the same build shotting for 300whp

So much fail in this thread.
PSI doesn't matter, horsepower does.
Stock rods fail somewhere around 220whp (typical tq curve).
You can easily max out a T3/T4 57 trim on a D16.
SpeedFactory was making 420whp on a T3/T04E 57 Trim (.63 a/r) and the Bisi 2.4 (stock Z6 ports)
Vitara's have held 600whp before.
And yes, 400whp has been done on a stock head/cam. Different cam can certainly widen the power band though.
And boosting a D isn't different. It's smart.

thats what i figured, and i heard about the ls rods, but my power goal is above 300, so they are out of the question.

no psi dont matter its just how much power you build can handle
if you have a small turbo and 20 psi compare to a larger turbo and 20 psi big diffrence in power
