Default how much boost?

stupid question, here is my set up and the number I have b16a at 18 psi. 18G GREDDY turbo, greddy front mount i/c, stock intake manifold, 550cc at 85%injectors Hondata stage 4, 2.5 inch downpipe, 3" thermal exhaust, 2.5 cat, 40mm tial wastegate, greddy bov, srp 9:1 comp., crower rods, 5 angle valve job, crower cams, tit ret, s steel valves, degreed cams, ignition timing at 16 stock setting, 255lph fuel pump, 50 psi fuel pressure, I put down 333 hp and 245 torque tuned with a wide band 02 sensor for reliability at 12.1-12.3 on the a/f meter. Ihave stock sleeves that were bored out to 3.209 bore. All machined and built by a machine shop.
I was just wonder if I raised the fuel pressure to 60 psi Will the 18g handle more boost or not
And how much boost can be run on a non sleeved block. what is a safe level?
Or is thats it.

I think jinxproof99 has run 25psi, 500+whp on stock sleeves as well as a few others.

Man, those numbers are pretty good for an 18g turbo. MOst i've ever seen on a honda with that turbo. Doesnt that turbo max out just at a little over 300hp?
