My best guess for a stock B18C bottom end would be around about 10-12psi? I know alot of guys on D16's pushing 8psi on stock bottom ends reliably for quite some time granted the D16 uses lower CR than B18C's do, so provided you have the right amount of fuel dialed in, I think 10 or a little more should hold up ok.

eclipse is can be FWD in a GS model, FWD turbo in a GST model and AWD turbo in a GSX model

And i run 10psi on my GSR (b18c1) with upgraded injectors (310cc) 8:1 FMU, Fuel pump, BTM and J&S

stock internal and on a gsr 6-8psi with just the drag stuff. If you want more get larger injectors and Lower the fmu disc and add a fuel controller.

I myself will more than likely be going with about 12 psi on stock internals with my greddy kit but granted with a hondata stage 2b and the 440 injectors with Vaportrail hopefully next month if all goes wel financially for me. Basically Vapor as well as my good friend said the same thing with the correct fuel management and tuning 12 psi will not hurt the engine, it's the detonation. Laters

Not enough!!!

I am parking my car soon and pulling the engine for a rebuild. It has never been to the dyno with the turbo and when i went to the track the clutch started to slip before i got one good pass in.

My best trap is 105 with a 2.5sec 60 foot and no power shifts this is all at 4000 feet above the sea which makes a BIG difference. Just so you have a frame of reference SS f-bodies run 98miles here and a new cobra runs about 95 miles. It is tough to make power here.
