At least ARP rod bolts. I would do rods, balanced crank/rotating assembly.

Have the OEM crank balanced...OEM cranks are damn near bulletproof, no need to change. If you want to go to 8k, just the rod bolts should be fine.

B20 crank = B18B crank...same thing with rods...they're identical. If you change pistons, youre going to need to change the rods...so they will come with ARP bolts. Any automotive machine shop should be able to balance the crank.

Ok, so new rods, pistons and balanced crank and I should be good 2 go?
What compression do you recomend? Want to turbo later so not too high but not too low I was thinking like 9:7

Well if you can find a B20Z instead of a B20B, the compression is 9.6:1 stock. I like 10:1, good all around number.
