how much boost can a stock evo 8 turbo produce

I am looking to up the boost on my car. I want my car to be quicker but a the same time I don't want to do any damage to my car or the stock turbo. I run 93octane and I have upgraded my injectors to the AMS 600cc units.

highest ive ever heard is about 30psi peak. the highest it can really hold all the way through redline is probably around 20psi or so. if you want to run higher boost make sure you have race gas in the tank or alcohol injection.
