I have heard of people running up to 25 psi, thats a really thin line though, I try to run between 22-23 psi, make sure you get a fuel pump though, or your going to find out what fuel cut really is.

What mods have you done to your car? Your specific level of tune can influence knock resistance, and as a consequence, the amount of boost that you can run safely.
