Default Boost level?

OK... I need to get this cleared up for certain. I don't want to end up putting this turbo on my car and having problems with it. I have a DSM t-25 I'm gonna put on my car in a month or so. I've posted before and searched and have not gotten a clear or certain answer. The misconception or should i say... misunderstanding is this...

on a DSM T-25's... WHAT BOOST DOES THE W/G open at? 6-8psi? or 10-12psi? I'm speaking when the turbo is on a car other than a DSM.

I've heard it's 6-8psi because DSMs had a EBC that raised the boost to 10-12psi.

And on the other hand...
I've heard that it's around 10-12psi... period.

Does ANYONE know for sure what the boost level is and with proof/experience?
