Track Turbo Build

Track Turbo Build
I already know what everyone will say, just another turbo build thread that he should have looked through everything and got his answers. I'm looking into doing a track specific turbo build and want it to last under whatever I throw at it on the track. I'm not sure if I really want to go all the way through a full engine build but if I have to so be it. It's looking more and more like I'll be using lost of parts from FM because everything I read has the best quality in terms of design and reliability. What LSD do you guys use with gear ratios and what not? I will put a budget on the build but at the same time I want to do it right the first time to keep me out of trouble in the future.
Let me know what you guys think.
Thanks.

Before you add a turbo you need to do reliability mods like coolant reroute and bigger radiator. You should also upgrade the brakes and suspension. And the clutch pre-dates the turbo as well.
The 1.6 rear diffs fail at stock 1.6 power so switching to a 1.8 diff and axles is a must. 4.10 and 3.9 ratios are most common and either will do fine.
