Default How much boost would you run?

This is basically a curiosity and experience question. With some amazing setups popping up everyday with people making crazy power on some stock internal motors I'm curious as to what you more experienced guys would attempt on my setup. FWIW I'm plan on keeping it around 14-15psi once tuned and have no real desire to go any higher. As is, I'm making 380whp on a conservative tune(no dyno tuning at all, some quick/light street tuning)
So as a rule of thumb, what boost pressure do you think I can run on 93 octane pump gas with a good tuner on the following setup.
*no flaming on the stock rods and sleeves please
Thanks.
M

-B18C5 bored .20 over, stock sleeves
-InlinePro Blockguard
-Stock Rods(shot peened)
-Ross Pistons 9.2-1
-100% stock head & intake Manifold
-Garrett t3/60-1 Turbo
-Equal length exhaust mani
-Full 3" turbo-back exhaust
-Hondata S200, 780cc injectors
