7psi to be safe. 12psi if you want to be risky. 15psi if you want to replace it very very soon.

No matter how many times you people say search they still come and ask.

so ... might as well humor them. Just give good info but do it in a hilarious fashion.

You can turbo a stock KA24DE and apply 25psi of boost pressure. For twenty seconds or less. per engine.

Well how many miles, how are your compression numbers, how well did you and every owner take care of the car, all of those play a big role. You gave us no info to work on and asked a question. And bigger engine? You planning a 6cyl or V8? Hell save your time and money and put it all towards that if you are dead set on something bigger and just deal with the NA KA until that day comes. Otherwise you might not be able to save money because you are having to fix what you broke.
