Default How much Boost can a stock 6.5 safely handle?

OK im going to pull my map sensor off put a booste gauge in the hole from the map sensor since i have tested everything i can to get my van to quit bucking and kicking when i have a good load on my truck but nothing seems to work. so if i use a 10# spring kit on my turbo and with the map sensor still hooked up but not doing anything i should lose the bucking and kicking to defueling . Safe to do or no?
