Default T3 on stock B16A2 internals?

Would running low boost 3-6psi be ok on a stock B16A2 engine, what sort of power would low boost achieve?

Are there any examples of low boost reliable setups over here on HT?

You should be able to run 6-10 psi safely on a stock b16 engine. there are plenty of reliable setups even junk yard setups are reliable if done properly. Anything less than 7 psi you dont even need to use an intercooler. Just food for thought....

What sort of hp/lb torque would 6 psi produce, edlebrooke quote 60% on their 5-6psi kit. Thats 270-290hp.

5-6 pst would make over 200 whp if lucky at 6 psi around 220 whp. I myself had a B16a3 motor with a t3/to4e setup at 7 psi ran well for several years but never dynoed. ran it at 9psi at the track with the old style pump and regulator and got to 12.2 1/4 miles.
