Depends for what car, Heffner built a biturbo Gallardo and also Vipers, you might try to contact him.

I thought you need at least 30 psi to achieve that power

That's the difference between a Supra and Lamborghini Diablo.Supras need 25-30PSI to get the same horsepower and they would only have 150-200HP under 5K RPM.
If I put my boost at only 15PSI,I would have somewhere around 1200HP.

I have a Suzuki Hayabusa Super Bike which I have modified by installing a Turbo system (10 PSI Max Boost without water injection and without lowering Engine Compression).
And as far as I recall the math says 1 PSI = 14.1 HP
So 900hp-492hP= 408 hp
408 hp / 14.1 hp = 28.9 PSI
That is why I thought maybe it takes more than 10 PSI to get that power.
Anyway thanks for the info I am sure you know more than me

The Twin Turbo Gallardo that Heffner produced has been a diaster as reported on the Internet in Detail by the owner, and is reported by the owner to be back in the shop once again, about the tenth time in a year, and according to posted reports by the owner, will be for sale if it ever runs long enough to pass a road test & money can change hands.
