Default Question about going b16 turbo?

I have been toying with the idea of going to the dark side (b-series) and was wondering if the it will be worth the hassle. My questions are...

about when would a stock b16 spool(~10psi) using a minilog+2.5" open downpipe on a .63a/r t3/t04e 50trim? my d16z6 doesn't get 10psi till probably right ~5k

how much power (with a good tune) would a healthy stock b16 on ~10psi with the before mentioned setup?

right now at ~9psi I'am trapping about 104-105mph in my 2075lb crx. would it be safe to say I will trap at least 110mph with a b16 at ~10psi?

It would definately be worth it. You would probably spool at close to 5K, but that is plenty early.

You would probably put down anywhere from 240-300hp depending on alot of things. With that amount of power you would trap anywere between 110-118 or so. With a good launch you could get a high 11 second pass easy.

Depends who tunes it, and if the motor is healthy.

Psi doesn't really matter. I would just keep it under 300hp. With a good tune 300 should be fine.
