how many psi of boost can a mostly stock pre-runner safely take from a supercharger?

    Mostly stock meaning an upgraded intake and exhaust. I know the engines headers and pistons (and maybe the gears an tranny) aren't meant for insane amounts of boost, but that's why I'm asking. I've looked on customtacos and yotatech and they don't have much in the way of the numbers I'm looking for. So if any of you guys can help me that would be great!!:D

    I'm running a hopeful 10psi with the 2.7 pulley, never had issues and everything is still holding strong *knock on wood*

    EDIT:

    Just realized your driving the first gen Tacoma, lol I've really got to start to pay attention where the thread is -.-'

    Its all good man! I've seen threads that say that the 3.4 can get to a fairly high psi with just a few upgrades (Headers cams and pistons) and up to 7500 rpms without redlining. I don't have the money to get a supercharger yet so I'm doing my research before I get one(IF I get one) because 7.88 as a lifeguard wont pay for a blown engine.:)
