for higher boost , and reliability , look at 3 or so areas - Fueling , headgasket , clutch , Turbo upgrade
for low boost around 12 PSI - youll defenatly have to look at a FCD at least - though expect your headgasket to complain after a while
Clutch will start to slip if you have a stock one at anything over stock boost so you may need to upgrade that too
Anything more than 12psi you start looking at things such as aftermarket management , intternal strengthening of the engine , and the need for a greater capacity fuel pump and injectors.
turbo wise the limit on these are debatable - youll def' need steel internals for anything over 14 PSI as the ceramic coating on them ( non oz spec or group a ct26 i mean ) will start to de laminate ..
usual fix is upgrade your turbo wirth either something aftermarket - or highflw the ct26 using a to4 wheel and supra compressor ( or something like that )
Mines an extreme end of example - but it will be able to handle upwards to 25 PSI with new turbo without much fuss
power figures is a dirty big variable - no one can say that X combination of parts will yield Y results - though with more ( around 16 - 18psi boost, better fuelling and a dcent head gasket - over 140 - 150 KW without much fuss at the wheels ( big guess here from other results ive seen )
