A block doesn't break at a certain psi. It breaks at a certain psi with a certain turbo.
8 psi on a 48/60ish T3 is not the same as 8 psi on an HX35.

Its also about how much power the motor can hold. How many RPM's it can turn. You gotta remember were looking at maybe a 4500-5000rpm redline. Im assuming 8psi on a Holset will make a ton more power then a T3 because it flows so much more?
