i need expert help. turbo zx14 trex

Ok guys. I'll make this short and simple
My turbo trex blew the motor bad last year
It's been sitting for 6 months. I picked up a factory longblock with 1900 miles.

Here is what I want...

To use my Mr turbo turbo kit and be able to have a streetable trex again. My last build was so over the top and so expensive
Is it possible to turbo a stock motor without blowing it Tue hell up? I made 300whp and it wad waaaaaaaaay to much. I want like 230-240 tops. I miss ripping my trex around corners like irs meant for

Can I just remove the butterflies and get it tuned?

What caused the problem with the last one ??
low boost on std motor should be no prob,
just be sure its tunned good ,
maybe even go with e85 if its readily available near you

Bearing and bottom of rod all black
are the others showing signs of heat too ??

You need an accurate diagnosis of what caused the problem last time and do something about it or you are likely to repeat the damage

Any specific turbo parts in the original ,motor ?? valve springs, studs etc

Je pistons. Crowler rods. Arp head studs. Rc750 injectors. Walboro pump. R@d trans. I haven't even pulled the blown motor apart. It's still sitting under the shelves. I assume just to Mich boost and being untuned.

To much info missing to Help any. Sorry.

With the set up you listed above 7lbs would have stayed together with proper tune.

Fuel cut in injectors one and four currently my biggest worry. When tire breaks traction Red Line comes quick. Fuel cut = Lean in cylinders one and four. Not good.

That's what I'm looking to Here. I just fired the trex.up now n/a until next year. Just weighing out my options. I want to get all bugs worked out of it n/a then start fresh rebuild the turbo and really put it together mint unlike the throwing.parts at it like the previous owner did.
