It depends on your other mods and the turbo.
What kind of upgrade is it?
Do you have a wideband sensor installed?

We would need a lot more information to give you an answer...

Intercooler setup, exhaust setup, turbo (type, trim, any other info), gauges, tuning method (reflashed ECU, piggyback, standalone, etc.), other supporting modifications (injectors, cams, etc.).

Then don't even consider turning it up that high until you learn/mod afew things. You can mess that motor up really bad by running 20PSI without the right supporting mods.
Just don't do it.
