Default need boost advice

I'm working on my first boost build and could use some advice. I'm building a f22a for my accord and was wondering what a safe yet semi-aggressive boost level would be to run. Here is my setup:
f22a block bored to 85.5mm
wiseco pistons (9:1:0 CR)
Bisimoto h beam rods
OEM Honda bearings throughout
arp rod and headbolts
stock crankshaft
Ported drag manifold
Holset hx35 Turbo
Hks blow off valve
Tial wastegate
And a built head.

I guess what I'm asking is what in your opinions can the f22 sleeves handle? I've done lots of research and found lots of different answers. Here is a pik:

boost psi has nothing to do with it.
20 psi out a 18g and a gt42r are completly diffrent
think in hp levels

with that being said stock sleeves in a Fseries are very weak it all in the tune you sould be able to achieve 300-350 safely on pump any higher i would search alternative measures for fuel and keep a conservitive tune

That's all I'm really shooting for is 300 Ish. I don't see more than that being anymore than a bragging right.

+1 on that comment!

10 PSI on one will get you to a different HP level then 10 PSI on the other. I would stick around 300 - 320 though with a good A/F.

That's a pretty stout setup for 300whp. Since it's built and you have a relatively large turbo, I would actually shoot for ~350-375whp honestly. It is certainly within reason. Fuel will be the limiting factor...are you running pump? E85?
