Depends on the turbo, and depends on the tuning.

You cant go by boost. Go by WHP/WTQ. 10psi on a T28 is a hell of alot different than 10psi on a GT42...

what he said... but either way, the injectors will probably be the limiting factor.

These threads get kind of old after a while, but here goes...

-Dont attempt to measure your car's potential in terms of psi because that means different things for different turbos

-if you want a safe DD turbo GSR, stay under 350whp. There are a few things to consider if you're going to attempt that kind of power for a daily though....you need to put together an efficient setup AND have a compitent tuner tune your car. If you do that, you shouldn't have any problems.

I've been at or above the 300whp mark (currently at 315/216) for a year and a half without any serious problems. The only thing that HAS gone wrong was my timing belt but that wasn't related to the turbo at all....

Yes...just to add DSM 450's are only going to take you to about 300-315whp before they approach maxing out.

i failed to notice that....w/ the DSM 450s you'll be lucky to make 300whp w/o maxxing them out

ok, well i forgot to add that i do have a 3 bar map sensor coming and a underdrive pulley(crank) on its way too. i run with royal purple oil, k&n oil filter, i have a chipped ecu from http://www.xenocron.com, i bought the engine back in feb with 88k on motor/trans, replaced the headgasket and timing belt too for that matter! i have ngk plugs but they are just the $7 ones and the turbo is from ssautochrome with a t3/t4 turbocharger. my buddy bought it and decided he didnt want it anymore, was never installed and i got it for half the price he paid! so just wanted to get some info but guess it is up 2 the tuner so thanks for the info you all gave

Your not getting over 300whp with those injectors I promise you. Get some 550's or 720's I believe is the next step up
