GUYS THINK ABOUT IT PROPERLY , just because u getting more boost now doesnt mean u can run more without stuffing the turbo up
remeber the more boost u run the more u turbo will have to spin to get to the required amount of bost u have set on the car so getting an intercooler is not actually helping u turbo , but helping u engine as the air getting to it is cooler than before . but the turbo with the new intercooler is now working more harder than before to get the increased level of boost
so in actual fact bigger intercooler = more cooler air to the engine and more strain on the turbo as it has to now make more boost cause the new intercooler is less restrictive than th stock one , same thing for dump pipes it increases flow thereby making the turbo spin faster so more boost

dude, you think about it. You measure boost at the plenum. The intercooler is in between the plenum and the turbo. You're making 14psi (for example) at the plenum. Stick an intercooler with less restriction in it. The turbos are working just as hard, not harder. There is less restriction between the turbos and the plenum, hence the higher measured pressure.
You are running more boost, but the turbo isn't as restricted and as such more boost reaches the plenum. The colder air is a by-product.
The dump pipe helps the turbo spin freely on the exhaust side, so there is less resistance there, hence making it easier for it to spin and thus not working as hard to produce a given boost level.
