So many variables, but should be good for stage 1 and 3, so about 14 and 22psi, but needs checking before meltdown as in afr check under load, but this of course means a new chip/actuator.
With std chip I wouldn't run anymore than std, not worth the risk, stage 1 makes a huge difference most notably to torque, and improves mpg when not booting it, and can be as little as £200
