Please search. Been covered many times. It all depends on your set-up, and tuning.

besides its easier to say it can take aound 350 hp on a good build and safe tune. And 350 can be anywhere from 15-20 psi depending on turbo and build.

I push 22psi daily, but I've ran up to 31psi. 31psi was an accident, but it was a full 4th gear pull. I've ran 25psi sustained on the street for a night..

I broke 350whp at 14psi.. 414whp was made at 24psi.

How long have you been running that, and are you still at stock compression?

You should also describe what turbo you are using. It can make a big difference in how well the engine can make power and handle the boost pressure applied.

Cory, what are you using for tuning again? Is it BTM and SAFC or something else?
