hybrdthry911 knows what he's talking about.


PSI isn't everything.  You can have a high PSI setup that runs hot and produces less power but more importantly is worse for your engine.  You want cool dense air even at a lower psi.


Also, where the boost is delivered in the RPM band can also have some affects when you're really threading the needle of "safety"


In my short time here 325-375whp is generally the safety margin I see.  Some folks go 400hp but sooner or later they're rebuilding from leaky/busted ring lands or what not.  FWIW you can get to 325-375 at roughly 5-7lbs of boost.  400 can be achieved at 9lbs+ in general.  YMMV
