Re: Turbo b16
It all depends on what kind of power you're looking for. I've seen OEM ITR internals make anywhere from 300 to 330 whp, the psi used is gonna depend on the setup. I would not carry it no farther than that, however. OEM cast Honda pistons with that high of a compression associated with the high cylinder pressures of boost gives you little to work with. Keep it in that power range (above), and you should be fine. If you want more power, toss in some aftermarket forged 9:1 or 9.5:1 JE's, CP's, Wiseco's, Arias or any others most associated with Honda, all are pretty good companies, it's just personal preference.

Yes, you can. But the power to be had from those pistons is gonna be left up to your tuner, as the detonation & knock threshold is gonna be thin, assuming you're gonna be running pump gas.
