How Much Boost Will Stock Boots Hold?

How much boost can I run through stock 7.3 intercooler boots before they become an issue? -

alot has to do with the clamps too, did the boots just slip out from under the clamps or did the boots actually split and 25 on that 03?? -

They ripped. He was going up a hill with a backhoe, had his bully dog on tow and all of a sudden the truck had no power. Once we got out, the boot coming off the intercooler was ripped at the clamp. -
