Default Good motor for boost? (gsr block, b16 head, type r internals, gsr pistons)

what is this motor called?
is this a good motor?

what type of HP to the wheels could i expect in a 91 rex, 2.75" exhaust, and CAI

what kind of power will it make unboosted? would it be a good platform to boost?

Poor man type-R turbo, mmmm. Unboosted you're probably looking at about 175HP. Boosted you're going to be limited by the compression of the GSR pistons and the stock rods. Now if you do like I am an fully-build that setup, the possibilities are much greater, if done right probably 400 club material.
