Default D15 boosted?

My LS swap failed miserably, I was wondering if anyones boosted a D15, how well it handles, its MPFI with a bigger intake manifold and a cam. What PSI to run? Im not looking for a 12 sec car, just something fun to drive without a big hassle of doing a mini me. Any input would be nice

compression on a d15???depends on what d15 u got ..is it that vtec jdm motor....if so probally got like low compression like in the 9's. i know a dx motor has fairly low compression some where i the low 9s . you could safetly run low boost if the motor is in good shape probally like 6-7 pounds on a small turbo. greddy sells a pretty cheap kit.

SlowLS is an unknown quantity at this point

It's a d15b7. It is low compression. Nothing high about it. You can probably run 10psi safely with fuel management.
