Default Estimate Possible BHP

I know this will be very vague and the actual figure could vary massively, but I am looking for 230BHP from a RS Turbo and below is the spec. Firstly would it be possible to get 230BHP from the engine and if so approx. how much Boost. Thanks in advance

Stage 3 head
Piper cam with solid lifters
Allow rad
Front mount Intercooler
Tubular Manifold
Stage 3 T3

On EFI, it'd do that at around 1.5 bar boost.. on MFI, you'll be lucky if you get to it at all
