9 psi on a smaller turbo is different than 9 psi on a larger one. How well the turbo and motor flow will make a difference. There is no definite for "you will blow your motor." Don't take that out of context either...we know that 50 psi on a T88 will do it. There are a lot of variables that go into the equation. Common sense isn't excluded. You want big numbers...build your motor. You want daily driveablility and reliability, don't go overboard with the power on a stock motor.
