What's the standard boost for a S12 with the standard T2?

6-7 psi mate

Thanks so 96bhp ( 129bhp flywheel ) is not bad for a 80000 mile engine on standard boost.
So what would the safest psi to take it to without any risk of damaging the engine with and without I/C and what grade plugs?

about 10psi and bcpr-7es plugs.

i bet if you set up you tappets / timing and plug gaps spot on the car will be back to 135bhp. on standard boost you can up the timing from 15dbtc to 17.5dbtc to get a few more bhp`s

Cheers for the info, give me something to think about but before I start tinkering I've got to solve the missfire on no.1 on tick over before playing with anything else.
