Default OBD0 B16 turbo question

Is it possible to run a low boost setup on an OBD0 b16? I don't really want to swap to OBD1 which I know would be easy to tune and such. I only want like 3-5 psi, I was wondering if it could be roughly tuned with an adjustable FPR. Is there a write up about this anywhere? Any help/ info would be appreciated. Thanks.

3-5psi!!! Pointless, might as well invest more on a N/A and you can have the same power gains. ALso psi is irrelvant, you need to be talking HP/torque gaines your after.

well with current modifications I make 140 Whp and 103 ft/lbs on a dynojet, in a 100 degree garage. I only want to reach maybe 180-190 whp.

Current mods- JDM B16 (OBD0) , S1 cable Trans, ACT clutch, Hasport mounts, Skunk2 intake manifold, CTR intake cam and GSR exhaust cam, Greddy SP exhaust for CRX with extended tailpipe, Gutted cat, Neuspeed front upper strut bar, Walbro 255lph fuel pump, Adjustable FPR battery relocated to trunk, Eibach 2" lowering springs, Venom shift light, 68mm TB, No A/C or P/S.

Exactly my point, for the sake of an extra 40hp why not get your head and intake ported and polished, get more agressive cams (possibily stage 2 or 3), use higher compression pistons, over bore, use programmable ECU, etc.

Don't get me wrong, yes you can install turbo and run it to get you the 40-50hp more you wanted but in my opinion for money, time and some sacrifised realibility then a target of extra 40hp is a waste of such investment.

In my opinion, your always going to want more, why not turbo the car, dont be a cheap axx lol get a $100 jumper harness and p28, and your good to go...then when your bored of 200whp you can up the boost.......But if your set on obd0 i would stay all motor like stated..obd0 and cheap fuel adding is asking for a BOOM

or just chip the ECU, which on an OBD0 ecu is like 15 mins of work and $10 worth of parts and run BRE which is free. its basically the OBD0 version of crome, with less options.
