Not much, since our turbos are running almost to its maximum efficiency. Now we run about 14.5, the max efficient boost is about 17.5 You can achieve this by using a good TBE and intake. I use the Blitz ID3 and I have run about 18.5-19, but there is little gain at that boost, its mostly hot air. But its up to you.

There is a bit of a gain. with my stock wrx i pull about 25 whp running at a safe boost still under my fuel saftly cut-off. It is worth it to go with an Electronic Boost Controller (ebc) over a manual, but if you have the funds safe for a reflash or best of all, a UTEC.
