Turbo wizards help

Hey guys , so my r32 came with a Rb20det with a hks cast iron manifold and this turbo , I try to find out info on it like what's the max psi I can run safely before she blows lol but I can't find anything . Basically I just want to know how good this turbo is ? I'm shooting for 400ish hp and what to know if this turbo is good enough , 

 

i swapped out my Rb20det for a rb25det neo but I kept my turbo setup 

hks cast iron manifold 

tb34 60. Turbo  

3 inch down pipe and exhaust 

external waste gate currently at 10psi 

stock neo rb injectors 

front mount intercooler 

oil cooler 

stage 3 clutch clutch masters 

255 walbro fuel pump .

also next question can I put up my boost at 15 psi safely with the setup that I have ??

Best way to find max boost is to crank it up until it pops, then back it off 2 psi.

 

Personally I wouldn't waste my time woth that turbo.

Turbo makes the power, plenty of excellent options around.

400hp is not a modest goal.  There is plenty of information in here on how to achieve it but start by reading some of the RB25 turbo upgrade posts:

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
