safe amount of hp
im goin to get my turbo retuned here very soon and i want to know what a safe amount of horsepower would be. i know that obviously nothing is "safe" but i mean more along the lines of "safer" hp. right now im makin 252 to the wheels at 8psi. i wanna stay at 8psi but i want to see if i can get it up to around the 260-265hp range if not more if i can do so and stay somewhat reliable, this is my daily driver lol, but i dont get on it much, mostly just at the track and the occasional test on the street 
. this is all on stock internals and 93 octane. any information is greatly appreciated!

Mine it's a daily driven with stock internals too. I have a dual stage and for daily use I run at 8psi/278whp and the second stage it's set to 16psi making 356whp. I been running it like that for almost a year with no problems at all. I can't say that it's safe but it's been working fine for me.

The tune i gave you is tuned at a 10.5:1 AFR, extremely PIG rich, but for reliablity vs power. If you retune just get retuned for 11.5:1 AFR and you'll see a considerable amount of gain.
Where pics of the install dude?
