Zero PSI. You obviously have no clue what you're doing. You have to set the HP goal first!!! Second you pick the TURBO!!! Why are you noobs always stuck on PSI?!!! PSI don't mean SQUAT until you've picked a turbo. And installing the parts is the EASY part. Now you have to worry about engine management, tuning, slipping clutches, crankcase pressure, blown headgaskets, headlift, monitoring, etc.
Do some research. This aint it.

The most important part of any project/build would be engine management and tuning. With this a good factory stock motor can handle a low hp turbo setup with the correct parts. I recommend investing on quality parts the fist time because it will save you money in the end.
As well take into consideration if you are going to make more HP you will have other items other than just the motor that will need attention to. For example clutch setup, fuel system upgrades, suspension/motor mount upgrades and so on. Do a little research and you will be fine

Re: d16a6 turbo
When I started I read for a whole year before I bought my first component. I'm still reading and I've only got what I'd call an "entry level" system. The questions have already been asked and answered if you aren't too lazy to search them out.
