Default Need advice on stock internal b16 turbo

I have some basic questions that I couldn't find by searching and reading the FAQ's. I have a second gen JDM B16A and I would like to put together a mild turbo set-up without doing any engine work. I would like to hear your opinion on the following:

1. How many psi could a stock bottom end B16 SAFELY handle with proper tuning? 7? 10?

2. Would a DSM T25 be too small for my motor? (This is what i've heard elsewhere, just want to make sure since I can get one for free.)

That's all I can think of right now, but I know there's more.
Thanks in advance.

Chris

psi means nothing, start thinking CFM and overall power limits for the stock parts. also limits of pump gas...

search!

Sketch_hs,
Thank you for the cookie cutter answer to every post on this site. Not to mention breaking one of the rules listed at the top of the FI forum.

And, since I already read a **** load of posts on everything I could possibly find, your second statement means nothing to me. I've heard it all before. I simply wanted to know how much I could safely run without blowing up my engine. It would be 93 octane and i'm looking for @250hp. Is this possible?

Please, no more statements on theory or typical HT BS. If you don't have anything constructive to say, don't say anything at all.

well, I think I found an answer to my second question about the T25.

Still wondering about the boost though.
