This website is a great technical resource, please use the search feature. You will find more information than you ever wanted to know about "how much boost you can run on a stock gsr motor".
Or.... I could just tell you that boost is irrelevant and you should just be conserned with how much cfm the turbo strapped to your motor is pushing into it, or more easily said, how much power can a stock gsr motor can make (im guessing there is an implied "reliably without blowing up" at the end of the sentence). The answer is not set in stone but my opinion of max safe hp output on pump gas with very good tuning is low 400s. After that you exceed the motors bsfc and things like weak honda cast ringlands will eventually break. Again just my opinion from things I have seen, I recomend the search feature and make your own.

You generally dont want to go over 300whp on a daily driver gsr.
Use a wideband and an obd2->1 ems.

Just give the guy the 'short-n-sweet'..
The answer you're looking for is 7psi, no more. Trying to run more will only lead to problems like the welds on the intake manifold breaking, or floorboards comming apart. Trust me, I saw it happen at a dyno once.. wasn't pretty. That poor guy wasn't born a midget
