How much boost?

i am going to build a budget 383LT1 motor and want to put a litle boost to it. I may go with a forged crank if i can find one at a good price but will probably use a cast stroker crank, factory rods with some work on them, and a good set of forged pistons probably je. what kind of boost is going to be safe with this setup? i will probably use factory heads with work done to them to compliment whichever cam i go with and the turbo. would i be better off going with an aftermarket set of heads with a bigger cc to help bring compression down? also, those of you with turbos, give me some ideas on a cam, what you have run or are running that works. i am not looking to make a race car out of it just a street bruiser that can hold its own and is a little extravagant. plus, i want to see the look on the ricer boys faces when they here the blow off valve release under the hood of an old car. thanks, dust6928.......

The best thing to do is search because it seems like this question gets asked all the time.
