You can boost 1.2 Bar without issues on K16s on a 996 engine but I doubt you are gaining any performance beyond 1.1 Bar sustained, in fact it could be the opposite. The maximum you are seeing is 490-500 hp at the flywheel.

jalmood,
You will need bigger turbos, either a K24 or some K16/K24 hybrid that many do. You do not need other than a GT2 intercooler for those levels, TT stock ICs might be a bit tight.
True sustained 500HP is plenty!
