Get a greddy kit, anything else like a custom turbo kit, you will be pushing out over 200whp even if you turn the boost down to the lowest setting, get a good standalone ems, like hondata, a good tuner, and they can tune it to your specifications.

Thats not true at all, if you get a tiny turbo you can keep it under 200hp.

If you want to run around 200hp, you can run that safely on a stock block. Its all in the tune really.
