question on stock turbo

I will soon buy a rx7 turbo II but before that i have a couple of questions questions.

how much boost can i make from the stock turbo and what will i need to do this?

also if i get a turbo upgrade, what would i need to run this safely on the car?

any help would be greatly appreciated.

Original motors can't take more power right about now.
Most of them are around 100k miles or more at this point in time.
A REBUILD is highly recommended before raising the boost.
You're going to end up blowing the apex seals if not.

Ignore trying to raise boost for now.
Concentrate on getting the car in good running shape to handle the increased power before anything.
