how much hp is enough?????

Ok, i know it has been discussed before and i can't find it anywhere, but i don't remember how much hp can a stock 350 LT-1 engine handle.

I have a 377 ci, stock bore, ARP all around (mains, heads rods etc etc), forged internals.
I should have around 600+ hp but i want to spray it.
I was running about 4-6 psi of boost and around 300 shots of nitrous in the past with no problem.
Now i have a cog setup installed and i'm running 16-18 psi of boost now.
How much juice do you guys think i can spray it with??
150?? 200?? Or 300??
Any advise.....let me know.....
Thanks...
