It depends on how efficient your turbo is at high boost. Generally the rule is 10 hp for every lb of boost. But if your turbo is maxed out then you'll actually lose hp from excessive heat generated by your turbo. Also just be sure you have the fuel to support the increased air flow.

I've heard that a rule of thumb is 10 HP per 1 Lb. of boost. But that is too simple because if you have a larger engine like a 5.7 Liter V8 and put it at 6 lbs you can get more than 60 HP gain... a lot more. But for our little engines, that should do.

Why do you ask??? Are you finally going to creep over the speed limit?
