it all depends on the health of the motor and parts used in the turbo kit. If it is tunned/build properly you should be able to run around 8-10 lbs. But thats about max.

If you stack your headgaskets, have proper timing and with proper fueling, Ive seen guys run 12psi on a small T3 turbo.

Dont go boost unless you are prepared to rebuild the motor..
