Default Will a 200bhp rs turbo be reliable??

Im in the middle of rebuilding my s2 engine to go in my van
the engine was a good runner in my s2 running 180bhp
thought id rebuild it as its been standing for about a year.

the internals are fine so just a hone for the block
new rings to be fitted
i have arp con rod bolts
new main & bigend shell bearings
high pressure oil pump
i have smothed all the ports in the head
the ecu is chipped
and i have a newman cam & lifters new to be fitted with vernier pulley

Im aiming for around the 200 bhp will it be reliable to use daily??
