I think a rough way to figure it out is for every 2psi you gain 15 horsepower...obviously thats only if the turbo is still running efficiently and not blowing hot air...the engine can take a lot of boost...its got excellent internals...you just have to know how much boost you can run on your turbo...which im not sure of
max is 17.8 psi before fuel cut hits in. If you dont have a ebc its gonna be hard as hell. If you have a turbo back an ebc is the only thing to the cure to boost spike that i know of right now.
