Default K04 Turbo questions

Ok i have a 2000 audi s4 that i just recently purchased, it has a GIAC 93 Octane flash and K04 Turbos. The turbos are running 8 and peaking at 10psi, with this chip, and the K04 turbos what am i capable of running without hurting the car? i have a vogtland suspension and 710N diverter valves, a custom 3" catback exhaust, a spectra short ram intake. No fuel injectors or fuel rail, stock intercooler (can get a new one) but just wondering because people tell me i can go higher with no problem. i personally dont mind too much, cars fast as it is, but theres never a too fast haha. any helps appreciated, thanks in advance.

idk if this will help but if u get better fuel pump that will let u gt 2 more pounds of boost, and intercooler def gt 1, it will give u around 20more hp and u will b able 2 boost an extra 2psi. i have a 2001 a4 1.8t im waiting 4 my boost controller , boost gauge, fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator, cost me 800$ parts and labor . after that i will put in the intercooler so now im boosting around 8psi. i should b able 2 boost up 2 12psi with no problem, since u have a s4 u should b de same but a lil higher. but i suggest u def gt the intercooler done will def help u.

Default ok

so basically it would be safer to stay where im at now, until i can buy upgrades? id rather run the car right and not worry about problems in the future.

Smile s4

i know its sad, but im actually not even sure. i just got the car a few days ago only had a chance to drive it once before it was in the shop lol. i was trying to figure it out myself, they come 250 stock, the GIAC flash from what i understand adds between 70-80hp 80-90 tq. so assume 320, the upgraded turbos im really not sure on either, maybe 35 hp for the low psi im running? exhaust maybe gives me 5 and intake maybe 2-3 if im lucky? so roundabout to my knowledge id say high 350 maybe. im new to this whole audi thing i used to be a honda guy. but now i realize how awesome these cars are

maybe you could give me a better idea on hp if im way off? haha
