definatey
MOST engines would not be able to withstand 12-14psi (notice I said 'MOST'). D16's will take up to "10psi on stock internals" is pretty much the standard saying. Bseries is the same if you ask me (minus ls...which might be able to eek out a bit more) If you want to run that much boost youre going to have to redo the rods at the very least and and even then Id look into resleeving.
12-14 is acually quite a lot...most people run under 10 for daily driving...think of roughly 8whp/psi...8*10=80more whp.....thats a lot
D series engines are just as capable as B series... Plus theyre cheaper (That is a fact, I am not sparking the dvsb again...thats in the civic forum)
