Perhaps on a B16a, but I'd be wary of adding even low blow on a B16b given its increased compression ratio over the b16a.

it's still fit to take a small amount of boost, personal i would have started with a b16a and not a b16b

What kind of fuel management would you be expecting to be using on a £400 conversion? Not some dodgy rising rate pressure regulator I'd hope? What about the ignition map?

a fuel press reg would do fine, far from ideal, but never the less it will work.

my point is it can be done. so stop trying to tell me it can't or picking holes in, because it been done many a time.

I'm not picking holes, not saying it can't be done. I'm just saying that the bolt on ethos is inherently dodgy when adding forced induction to a previously naturally aspirated engine, particularly one with a high compression ratio out of the box, without spending some cash on things like decent programmable management in order to control it all.

Like I said. Cheap/Reliable/Fast. Pick two.
