I wouldnt run any more than 12psi, you will just blow your turbo. The previous owner on my TII was running 14psi on stock turbo with just about the same as your setup, and now the turbo blows oil and smokes on hard runs
edit: i believe the previous owner was running low 13's at best at 14 psi

well i have a "decent" s5 turbo on it now, but i have a really nice s5 waiting to go on. lately at 10psi i havent been able to keep a turbo so i stock up on them. thier average life span is about 2-4 months. ive heard of some running 17 but i know better than that. i was hoping for 15 though.
