Default b20 vtec turbo setup

Debate. I just finished putting together my Crvtec. Basic. B20z bottom end 100% stock, B16a 1rst gen head, mild bowl work, and port matched, 3 angle, and worked stock manifold, gsr throttle body.B16 cable nonlsd/ 4 puck clutchmasters. Ok also have turbo kit. Basic log/ 35mm Deltagate/ rear inlet/ outlet intercooler Spearco core/ stock supra bov/ oh yeah t3 .42/.48 air research/ 3" stainless dp/ open wg dump.. Debate. Keep it all motor because I have b16 trans and am afraid any more than na and I will wheel spin the 1/8 OR....Boost it 5-7 pounds mild tune and deal with it. My ef has poly radius rod/ front lca bushings and sk2 drag coilovers. Car will be obd1 either way so not a factor neither is tuning. Thanks

if the transmission is the only thing holding you back from boosting, get a different tranny...i would think the lower compression b20 block would favor it anyways.

tranny isn't just it. B20 will only hold low boost in stock form aka weak sleeves. So really just debating is the 5- 7 psi worth the stress on the sleeves/ drive line?
