Default How Much PSI

I am new to the Turbo side of the world. And was wondering if you can tell or calculate what PSI I would have to be to put down 400 whp in my CRX. I have a B16A1. I am looking at the REV HARD and DRAG kits and do not know which one to get. The block was just Sleeved with DART sleeves and honed out with JE 9.0 comp pistons and Eagle Rods. Stock crank though. I am still running the stock ECU though, I am looking to go OBD1 and get the Hondata S200 program. Any information would be greatly apperciated!

thanks

on a perfect world...
u make 160 chp
if u take 22 psi, add the atmospheric pressure (14.7), then divide it by the atmospheric pressure, u get how much power more u will make.
then u multiply what the motor makes NA and the number u get then u get what it should perfectly make

for example

22psi+14.7psi=36.7psi
36.7psi/14.7psi= 2.496

2.496x160hp= 399.36 chp

of course, theres a rule that says, the stronger u make a motor NA the more power u squeze when boosted
and its true
