It's not bad to have a stroker with a turbo. Lot's of 4g63 guys have them and I think even some 2gnt's have them. It will help spool your turbo faster and give you more tourqe in the lower rpm's. As far as pistons go, stick with je's with a compression of 8.8:1. It gives you more of a window for tuning than the higher comp. pistons have.

on the pistons the reason i havent decided is im kinda looking for some good 8.0:1 compresion pistons to allow a little more boost but it seems like almost everyone here uses either the 8.8:1 eagle or weisco

If you have 8.8:1 you can make more power with less boost than if you have 8.0:1. And with 8.8:1 there is still a great window for tuning. I would recommend getting the 8.8:1's.
