Default Turbo size on ZC

Sorry im sure everyone is way over the zc questions but im no understanding how the search works. Anyway this will be my first boosted car. I have a dohc zc with crower rods and king bearings. I am still searching for some pistons but i wanted to ask some questions first.

1 how much boost can a stock PM7 piston hold?

2 I purchased a t25 to run on a stock setup now that im going all the way, what tubo can i run on crower rods with turbo pistons (or stock) without sleeving, posting or block gaurd?
3 I see that a t25 seems to be too small so i was going to go with a 14b until i read about how t3 is the way to go. Then which t3 should i get to run on stock sleeves? Which vehicle does it come out of? And how do the t3 volvo and audi's hold up?

I am trying to get low 13's mabye 12's in this car. Its not daily driven but me and my girl just got a house so resleeving is out of the questions unless i get 2 sleeves a year for christmas . My goal hp is 240 or more if possible i dont think the crank can handle more than 300. Thanx for the help and please dont flame me im new to all this. I also have a B18a i started to build for boost but well see how the zc comes out first.

I run a 14b and love it.

I'm at 8 psi and plan to raise it to 10psi for daily driving next year. Yes a T3 is more common and you can get it in MANY different sizes, but my 14b was in near new condition, list at $430 at the used part store I got it from and I talked him down to $200.
