there is no standard boost, they are not factory turbo'ed.

with out intercooler generally 12psi if your using the 2.4 turbo. with good intercooling as much as you like. a few people around running 30psi pr more.
its the fueling that kills them.

yep.With out pump mods you'd would only really wanna go around the 15 -20psi. But as tweake said anything in double figure psi you want to run a decent intercooler to get the best outa it and to make motor stay reliable.
Remember when uping the fuel you don't want smoke when on boost.

Chuck a boost gauge on it see what its makIng now im guessing 8ish, with out intercooler i wouldnt go above 10 with a decent intercooler i wouldnt go above 12-13 psi anymore an your looking at broken cranks blowing ring etc, factory. Pump with adjusting fuel will handle that to
