That is going to be highly dependent on the turbo you are using.

The point of a turbo upgrade isn't just to crack some magical boost pressure. A lot of turbos, be they larger or more efficient, can make more power at even less boost than you were pumping through the factory ones.

The 1GGTE is a heaps stronger engine than the 7MGTE

Oh there is no doubt in my mind that I believe it (biased opion of course  ) but i would like to know if we do have some bragging rights over the 7M owners

Isn't just the 7m's head gaskit the issue??
Replace that and it would be a lot stronger?
