Default high comp. GSR can i boost?

Hey every in FI i rarely venture in here and this is my first post in here

but pretty soon i may inheit an f-max kit (long story) for a crx w/ b16. i know i will have to modify the intercooler pipes. but hey a turbo is a turbo. i recently got a comp. test and i checked out 250 all the way across. BTW my car is a 94 gsr w/ ITR pistons and cams. My main question was can i SAFELY run low boost on my car with this setup?

Oh and i just bought an ebay special clutch and plan on upgradeing my flywheel i was thinking an ACT Prolite but would that be too lite for a turbo setup?

Thanks In Advance for the help

you need to venture in here some more, tons of turbo gsr's turbo'd. Just tune it real good with some good fuel management.
