a healthy 7mgte can handle 12psi on a factory turbo right? i think i read that if you push much more out of it your looking for trouble

the general opinion on the shimming is retarded.. when there are safer ways.. for instance.. 12 bucks gets you a manual boost controller..
as for safe boost.. anything above 12 and your looking at forged internals..
granted everything is in top shape..
your sig says 135k miles on a stock platform.. I wouldn't shoot for 12 less you restore your engine first. 20 years is 20 years.. no matter how much you babied your car.
