Default How much can this engine take?

Well, I have a semi built B18B bottom end with crower rods and JE 9:1 pistons. With the right amount of fuel and engine management, how much boost do you think I can pump out of my Drag Gen III kit along w/ an occasional use of my 55 wet shot of NOS for when I pull up next to some big dogs. I'm in the process of putting the head back on then installing my refreshed long block and from there comes the installation of the turbo kit I just purchased. So I just want to know a safe amount of boost I should dial up w/o having the risk of blowing my engine but still getting plenty of horses out of it.

I woulda say about 15lbs as a rough estimate if you're running a good standalone unit and have it perfectly tuned.
