More info dude. What is your setup?

Your psi is already way too high if you are using stock pistons.

sky's the limit kiddo. And tunings the clouds. I've already said a prayer for your motor though.

so 15 psi, netting you how much horsepower is still not enough? I gotta hear this.

It could be time to upgrade to a different car maybe. Unless you want to build your motor for the turbo second time around. Don't be afraid to work backwards though. If you have too, pull your turbo system off, and build your block. If not, just crank that boost up!

8 - 9 psi on stock block with moderate tuning. basically more tuning = more psi. but 15 psi on stock block is death. but goog luck

No, you don't seem to understand. WHAT IS YOUR SETUP? That means what exact parts do you have, is the block sleeved, what turbo are you using, what engine management, etc??

You do not have 'all the works'.
