Default Boosting an automatic 96 Accord EX I4 VTEC feasible?

Would the car (properly tuned) boosting at 5~6psi be reliable? What hp should I expect it to put down? Times?

Thanks,

reliable: not in my opinion boosting on the stock honda auto tranny will cause it to fail prematurely.

hp: 215 whp / 195 ft-lbs @ 10 psi is what accordexchange put down, figure from that.

you can do it, but just do it safe and right:

Oil cooler, tranny cooler and other methods to help the tranny:

send in the torque convertor and like 450 and have it worked on with level ten: ive seen dyno charts and proven facts that most auot's lose 23% of their power and after the level ten TQ Convetor: It was down to 13-14%: good gain for 450ish
