read up on how turbos work or speak to a turbo specialist, boost pressure is relative to CFM ratings: a stock turbo putting out 20 PSI is doing a whole lot of nothing but a big T66 putting out 20 PSI is doing a hell of a lot more and then there is the intercooler factor but we won't go into that right now...

Not recommended.

Do your research first.
Being a boost junkie will usually end up killing your engine.

Also best to have the motor rebulit at the same time your upgrading a turbo. Find out what kind of parts you need to up grade to be able to run 20lbs with out the engine starving for fuel or oil.
