Which is why the general accepted "limit" is the 600 - 650 mark, because not everyone has access to an in person tuner, which is pretty much essential for optimal tuning/operation above that level of boost.
7 PSI is roughly 682HP at the crank... The basic estimation math is double your power every 14lbs of boost.

You my friend get it. I work at a very highly respected well known performance shop in Houston tx (street racing capitol as well as the best known tuners). It's funny how some people are so quick to argue and disagree with facts that I personally see on a semi regular basis. I have stories for days on out with customers who didn't wanna forge their internals on 700+ hp builds and ended up with catastrophic results (not right away) but what do I know?
