It can hold more, just wont last long
but if you want it to last, 8 is that max i've heard
might get 9 or 10 if your up for a HMT alchy injection kit

how much boost is the wrong question to ask...you should be asking how much power.

Well 8psi is a lot different on a t-25 vs. a T88.... Its all about tunning... You can run 8psi on a stock a6, but are you talking about doing a mini-me? If so, the compression can be quite high, depending on what HG you use ect. but there is a compression calculator floating around somewhere, do a search and see what you come up with.
