The stock turbo will be safe to 13-15 psi. After that, the turbo is past its efficiency range, and power increases will fall off and are not worth the risk of turbo damage.

Are sr20s reliable?
Very very very reliable motor they can go 700,000 miles easily with oil changes and maintenance.. You can get 500hp out of an sr20 all stock just an upgraded turbo but the rods are the week point.. i recommend 400-430 bhp if your going stock and just stock only a turbo upgrade will get you there.
