whats the crack with 16v turbo?
I've been thinking about this for a bit now but I'm not 100% what way to go. turbo 16v or ITB the 16v. I'm leaning towards turbo as I miss the power and think turbo with 86 chassis would be a good match.

anyway!! I have my old 3 rib Big port engine doing nothing and in need of a rebuild but whats everyones consensus with the building a turbo 16v.

I would aim (if i go the turbo route) for 240WHP. Not used for drift, more fast road and occasional track/sprint use

whats best?

3 rib / 7 rib (I know this is an on going thing but WHY? is there any real life experience from both sides?)

would 4AGZE pistons stand 240hp or go forged?

crank size? would the 40mm crack work from the 3 rib?

Transmission... People say the T50 is weak. but would it stand grip use

Rear diff... same as above.. if not what do people use.

I'm not wanting this to snowball into a house deposit but equally i know this isn't going to be cheap. I want good power (240 ideally), good reliability and a good cost. Hard to get all 3 i know!
