Get yourself some krank vents or a catch can or something to clean up your intake system.
Replace the knock sensor if it's original. No reason to mess around with that. I replaced my knock sensor when I took the heads off and have no regrets at all.
If you peg your DR750's long enough, you're going to cause a conrod fatigue failure. Would you rather do a full build now or do a full build in a couple years when this engine gives up the ghost? If the answer is the latter (and I wouldn't blame you), you should at least put filters in your oil feed lines. I can't imagine strapping such expensive turbos onto an engine without trying to do something to prevent them from being taken out do to a spun bearing (not much you can do if you frag a piston) ...
So after talking myself in circles, if it were my car, I'd try to protect the turbos with forged pistons at the very least, and at that point, you might as well get forged rods ...
This is why I like my cheap turbos.
