Are you on a FMU or tuned?

Get it re sleeved, lower compression pistons and rings. There you go. For 7 pounds you really don't even need to have it re sleeved but you might have fucked them up when you blew it.

yeah forgot to mention fmu, but how much will everything cost, some good brand names to go with etc... thanks for the help

OEM rebuild because your going to blow it up again with the FMU

Tune'd stock bottom end> Forged bottom end on a FMU.

tuner toys rods, vitara pistons, and acl bearings makes for a killer bottom end for CHEAP

d16z6 block with the d16y8 head
thats the way to go

i think you have it backwards... the d16z6 head is better for boost... it flows/holds up better...

oem rebuild, if you only running 7 psi, just get it dyno tuned it'll last you. you dont need to build the sohc. unless you ragging on it everywhere you go, you shouldnt have problems. i never had any on a oem rebuilt d16z6 running 10 psi, but mine was dyno tuned on chrome pro. fmu ftl.
