it's not about boost level. it's about how much power. boost levels and power levels will vary depending on turbo size and powerband. so don't go by how much boost. in general most people would agree to keep it under 500whp on pump gas with a thicker headgasket would be safe. however there are people who have gone higher... even on stock headgaskets with dyno sheets and vids to prove.
