What Boost Levels to expect?

Hi everyone, I'm leaning towards getting a TVS by February for my 07 SS/SC I was wondering if anyone here could give me an estimate on the boost level and whp for the following set up of things I have, and plan to get for the final project.

-TVS
- 60#s Injectors
-Injen cold air intake
-1 step colder copper plugs
- GMPP exhaust

Thanks in advance!

I agree. Just a bit of curiosity on my part.

Ideal list for a good TVS setup

Atleast 79's, or 80's injectors
3inch intake
LS4 throttle body if you can handle it
2.8-2.9 pulley
78lb Valve Springs
Stronger pistons
Ported Head
If your crazy cams
Heat exchanger
Option B some will argue
Meth
Dual pass
3inch exhaust catless if you like loud
Longutbe or mid length header
plugs
a great tune

Well the main reason is I dont want to push the stock SC too hard. So I figured TVS would be more durable under those power levels.
