Default most boost in a ls???

Ok, so when I read about some of the really fast supras running decent sub 10 times they are almost always running on 30+lbs of boost or more. I know running good times and making lots of power isnt just about the boost, but my question is, what is the most lbs of boost that any lsx applications are pushing??? Are there any lsx's running more than 25 - 30+lbs of boost? Also, what kind of hp #'s are these lsx's seeing when they are running all this kind of boost?

ohio boys were running over 30psi, think they were in the 1500ish rwhp range (they did a 180mph trap speed i think a few times at around 3400 race weight) pegged a dyno at 1200/1200 rw
few others have done around that and are around that power level.

I have a LS engine that has run at 32psi. I would guess by the ET that it is around 1400rwhp.

I'm planning to run 30+PSI this year, final SCR should be around 7.9x-8.0
