Can someone tell me the range of factory turbo boost in a '99 S70 T5M and at what RPM does boost come on? What is the max boost a factory motor will safely handle? Thanks.

~10.6-12 PSI is max from what I hear (Stock). Mine runs closer to 12. When it comes on, and how much of it comes on, is dependent upon you knowing how to drive the car or not. As for how much the engine can take, I'm not sure.
