I just had a couple of questions about my d series. What is the best piston- rod combo for a 14psi setup? Wiseco, JE, CP, SRP, Eagle....
Should I have everything balanced while I have it out? This is my first build, so any help would be great. Do's and dont's.....whatever!

Don't's would include "What is the best piston- rod combo for a 14psi setup". Do's include doing your own research.
14psi on what turbo? That makes all the difference in the world. Tuning also, how is the set-up tuned?
14psi can be anywhere from 220whp to 300whp...you need to be specific.

I am goin to run a t3/t4 turbo wih hondata and 550cc injectors. I have it supercharged right now, but 170whp isnt enough, so im installing Eagle rods, SRP pistons, ARP headbolts, and im balancing everything. Hoping for about 250-300whp.

Assuming that it's a moderate sized t3t4 (they come in various trims and A/R's)....you should be good for abou 400whp with that set-up....
You can hit 300whp with stock internals.....

The turbo has a 50 a/r . And im rebuilding it just to be safe, and besides the guy that is getting my charger is trading it for the rods, pistons, and gaskets. Should I go ahead and get ARP headstuds?

ARP headstuds are a must especially when you're boosting high on a SOHC setup. For some strange reason sohc's blow HGs way more than Dohc's.
trying to hit 300whp on stock internals is a good way to put a rod through the block.
Damn dude thanks for catching that. It totally slipped my mind I was thinking B-series not D-series.... ....
Yeah 300whp on a d-series is not good (seen it before though)...I wouldn't recomend more then about 230whp or so for a daily driver...

Well, on my first post I put that im installing Eagle rods, SRP pistons, ARP headstuds, and i am going to balance everything. Should 300 whp still be a problem.
