I turbo'd my 2.6 in 2003 and it is still running sweet (touch wood)

Run it at 15 lb. had it at 18 for a while. had it stock boost for the first year.

The driveline will give out before the motor

Your cyl head will probably be the 1st thing that goes. ARP headstuds + 18psi will be reliable.
Better start saving for a diff and gearbox conversion.
