What are you asking? Are you asking how to run more boost? or what needs to be done for your motor to survive higher boost?

Everything possible.
Forged pistons, con rods, crank, head studs, heads, anything you can. I don't think there is alot out there for the 3.

Time to start doing some reading. Use google, and try hitting up RPS, there are a couple of good ones on there.
