Adding pressure

I have an stock SR20DET on my hatch RPS I want to go from 7 psi to 10 psi or 11 psi. I tried searching this but i couldn't find anything on this. How simple is it to add a manual boost controller and would i need to modify or do something to make this change? any suggestions on how i can achieve this? Thx for your help

if you have the factory boost solenoid, just change the vacuum line going from the wastegate to the ic piping and it pushes you up to 11psi (iirc)

good looking out guys, Im new to this SR and turbos i was playing with the NA motors on my honda but ever since ive had this RPS ive had it stock and since the SR is gonna be passed along to my bro decided to play with it a little thats why i wanted to add more pounds to it. So if i say something obvious to you guys and new to me bare with me. THX.

I know i can boost the T25 up to 15psi with out mayor mods or opening the motor. But it it as easy as adding a manual/electric BC? and some vacum lines?
