Questions! HELP please !

ok so im looking into buying this civic hatch from a guy close to me. Before i bought it i just wanted to ask some questions to people who really know what their talking about because i know a little but im not to experienced when it comes to engines.

ok so heres the engine and mods :

2000 B16a2 motor (mint with less than 80k miles)
2001 ITR tranny with LSD(no grinds)
ACT 6 puck clutch with heavy duty pressure plate
Custom tubular manifold(made by a friend of mines but is very mint)
Mint precision sc61 turbo
ITR cams
AEM cam gears
Spearco intercooler (3.5 inch thick)
greddy type s bov
2.5 inch intercooler piping
precision 780cc injectors
walbro 255 lph fuel pump
Hondata s200 with boost option(FULLY TUNED BY MILLER FROM NRG TECH RACING)
3 inch downpipe and catback to a es oval 3 inch muffler
ITR intake manifold
currently tuned to 11 PSI from NRG TECH in connecticut


Heres the questions :

1. Is running 11 PSI on this engine/setup safe? i dont want to blow the engine.

2. Is the turbo setup he has on there any good?

3. Is the turbo setup worth 1,300$? he said he will lower price by 1,300$ without the turbo kit.

4. Any opinions or any advice would be awesome. Thanks in advance.

Re: Questions! HELP please !

its a pretty good setup....if you could get pics of everything, i would have a better idea. If you were to buy it and want to sell the turbo setup, i would buy it from you for the said price because i'm looking at changind a few things on my setup and the setup you're looking at has a good amount of the stuff i need....

Its not bad for the engine per say, but pushing 11psi on an SC61 is going to make a decent amount of power however you're under the turbo's effeciency range so its not making peak power yet. If you want it to last, i would expect to boost on it hard all the time repeatedly. Its just a fact of life w/ turbo cars...when is it going to break, not if.
