Default 3 Door stage 3 conversion.............How much boost??

Hi all.

My 3 door is stage 3 with the usual greens,3 bar etc + RS 500 intercooler with a standard T3 turbo bar a 360 bearing.

Got a dash 34 Garret actuater & fitted it today, on boost before was showing around 21psi...................the new dash 34 rod has been wound out showing 22-23 max & feels good.................whats the usual boost pressures for this spec retaining reliabilty & preventing anything from going bang.

Any help would be appreciated
