If you have a very well maintained block with lowish miles >150,000, and run 8-10psi on a VERY safe tune, you can make it last quite a long time. It's all about getting a great tune and taking very good care of it after turbo. Most guys that just slap a dsm setup on a stock block, cheap out on the wastegate and blow-off, and don't pay for a proper tune blow their stock blocks very quickly.My Member's Ride Thread

As said above, if the motor is healthy, the tune is good, and the selection of parts is done carefully (no small turbos... they'll blowtorch a good motor quickly)... and if you drive it with respect, rather than beating on it... it MAY last for a long time.
It may blow up the next day. Boosting 20 year old NA motors with fairly weak internals (at least as far as boost is concerned... they're plenty strong for their original purpose) is asking for trouble.
Judging from the fact that you have to ask what internals need to be changed, you're TOTALLY new at this. I suggest you spend a good deal of time researching before you start buying ANYTHING.
Check out two books: Maximum Boost by Corky Bell, and Honda/Acura Engine Performance by Mike Kojima. Some of the info is dated, but it'll give you a solid understanding of turbo, honda motors, and modifying these engines in general.

Speaking of which... do some research for yourself. We don't spoon-feed around here. Especially to people that call our cars "downgrades"
Best of luck to you.

First of all, 10psi on a small turbo vs 10psi on a bigger turbo could be a 200hp difference
Second, stock F22 +turbo =/= hand grenade. I can think of at least 3 people who run over 300hp on a stock F22. This doesn't mean that anybody can do it though. If you are an idiot and you slap stuff together and don't tune it right, it wont last.
And third, I'm not so sure if an Accord is such a downgrade from a tin can hatch that Im sure vibrates like hell with the K.

I hope I'm not bothering anyone by reposting this fact, but whenever I see something repeated in a thread I tend to pay more attention to it.
Like Deev said, research research research! This forum is just a HUGE wealth of knowledge. Make sure to check out the forced induction forum. Throw DSM turbo setups in search too and see what you can find.
