Default Boost Pressure in VJ-11 Turbos?

I've recently purchased a VJ-11 turbo from a friend and have done a little research into it and have found a few things on it

Useful Part Numbers 5T-604 and F220-13700B
Fits 1988-1990 626s and Mx6s with the 2.2L
These things are expensive.

Now, for those of you familiar with these, what kind of boost am I to be expecting out of this app? The guy I bought it from said he was pushing 12lbs of boost? Help.

Default RE: Boost Pressure in VJ-11 Turbos?

Anything above 16psi and you're going to be blowing hot air. If all you want is low/mid range power, they are great. If you want something up top, get another turbo with a larger turbine.

What application are you going to be using it for?
