depending on such variables as your intake, manifold, exhaust etc you'll see anywhere from 185-200 pretty safely i would bet. i have a friend with a d15b7 that just turned up to 10psi and we're betting he is getting 200whp.. he was at 7 psi forever and got around 165-180 we thought.

I owned at one time a 97 civic ex coupe with a d16y8 in it and bolted on a turbonetics t3/t4e turbo system from turbonetics directly with greddy evo exhaust. Everythign else was stock.
Ran 12 PSI made 226.8 WHP and 212.1 torque.
This was on 15" rota circuit 8's and dropped 2.7" on H&R springs with Tokico Shocks... Stock axles and brakes.
