just think, a stock b16 makes 140 whp and 110ft/lbs if ur lucky...i've seen a few on the dyno make like 130whp and 98ft/lbs of torque.

Roughly 1psi = 10whp and 5-10ft/lbs

10psi would be about an extra 100whp and i'd say maybe 75ft/lbs.

Of course this is all relative to which turbo you're using, which turbo manifold you use and which exhaust you use.

I'm not trying to **** in your cornflakes, but 200ft/lbs on "low boost" on a b16 will take a nice turbo, manifold and exhaust.

torque is a destructive force kids, it's meant to make heavy *** cars boogey down the road. it is not necessary for ligther cars... not in the quantities you desire. torque shreds clutches and tires, busts CVs, tweaks mounts, etc. besides, torque and hp are mathematically related, the two sorta go hand in hand. achieve and hold a reasonable torque curve (150~160 ish) by 3000 rpm, and your car will rock out hard.
