It is so rare around here though to see a 16G with a good setup and have the owner want to try to push it on race that I don't know what they are really capable of. Most of the guys who were pushing the 16Gs hard, have moved onto big turbo setups and it seems like everyone around here wants to start out with a 61mm turbo nowdays, even if they don't have a single part to support it.

Anything is possible if you think about it. Likely, probly not without nitrous. He would have to be pushing a good 400hp to the crank to make that power in an auto. Let say a manual car for example loses roughly 20% to the wheels on the dyno. If a car made 400 crank Hp it would make 320 to the wheels (400x.8=320). Oviously an auto looses more through the drivetrain. I drove an auto spider a year ago and it felt like the old integra was quicker. Felt like a NT. Looking at the tooners dyno list, the highest on the list for a 16g is a big 16g making 348 to the wheels on a 99gsx at AMS. Here is the setup on the car:
Bolt-On Mods:
SHEP Built RACE Tranny (w/ 4 spider center diff), Ported EVO III 16G, DSM Link V2, SBR 2G FMIC kit w/ short rout piping, ACT 2600, Rewired Walbro 255HP, PTE 880cc Injectors, Custom Cold Air Intake w/ Injen intake pipe, 1G 60mm Throttle Body and Intake Manifold, HKS SSQ BOV, Hallman EVO Boost Controller, SBR Cast Exhaust Manifold, 3" Tubular o2 housing, Fidanza Aluminum Flywheel, Greddy External Oil Cooler, 3" turbo back exhaust with cat, Ported Intake Manifold, Full Throttle AFPR, Fluidyne Radiator w/ slimline 12" fan, Auto Meter Ultra Lite Boost Gauge, Greddy 52mm EGT Gauge, NGK BPR7ES Plugs, Taylor Race Wires, Greddy TT
Engine Internals:
Built 6-Bolt, Pauter Billet Chromoly X-beam rods, JE .020 9:1 pistons, BJ's Stage 5 Ported Head, Crower Titanium Valve Retainers, Crower Valve Springs, HKS 272's, 1mm Oversized Stainless Valves, Revised Lifters, Cometic Steel Head Gasket, ARP Head Studs
I would say this guy has a pretty good 16g setup. He ran 12.0. Would be hard to accomplish with a stock motor and an auto... Looks like he has the other 20g anyhow.
