Evo X turbo is not the fastest or the most powerful but it is factory part.
4b11t is already designed for it. Maybe CBRD BBX Lite keeping low rpm boost, Less Lag quicker spool for the additional force.
Once you go bigger turbo things like head studs, better gasket, cooling, timing chain, engine oil & sst cooler upgrade, fuel pump, fuel injectors will become very necessary.
Once you upgrade "force" induction everything internal should be upgraded along with additional "force" coming in. Otherwise, it is just a ticking time bomb running on luck.
Just because you put a bunch of parts on & tuning will not guaranty reliability. Things can go wrong during tuning because of not having things installed properly or no supporting mod for the "upgrade" can lead to bad things happening.
If you want reliability start with supporting parts to withstand the "force" being added.
Cooling is more important than the turbo upgrade itself.
As far as the internals if we had the stress point test data we can make better assessment. ie how much pressure can the block/head hold before lifting & destroying itself. Valves, Springs, retainers, pistons, rods, crank.
bearings
The rest is all math trying to figure out what will added force will do to the current setup & figuring out how to withstand/keep up the additional forces to make it reliable. Just reiterating.
SST has potential & is capable of much more but only time/money will tell.
There are places that make transmission can build them to your spec, if you have enough money to throw at them.
