Default how much horsepower can a stock b16a SIR motor handle?

Just curious to know how much whp a stock b16a SIR motor can handle...
Are these good motors to boost? What turbo should I get for a stock b16 SIR motor that will produce decent spool and allow me to max out the power of the stock engine but still be on the safe side.?

depends on alot of things..

but if the tuner is good, motor is in good health, i dont see why it couldn't handle 300+whp easily, bone stock.

I've ran bone stock gsr's and b16's to around 12-15psi...car's lasted years before idiots tried to crank up the boost more..

its all in the tuner and tune on the car really.
