There's quite a few people around 9-10 psi on stock internals, but I'm pretty sure that 99% of them have a lot of supporting mods. Judging by your signature, you have the supporting mods pretty much covered minus the tune.

SS AFC seems to be the most economical and easiest to use, so I would get a good tune (wideband gauge will be essential) before upping the boost.

Sure. Just within reason get a wide band for sure.

I run 10psi with just motor mounts and a vibrant exhaust. I have a wideband and don't beat on the car to often either though.

ya the SS AFC, wideband o2 gague, downpipe, and boost controller is what i have left to get. im gonna get everything before i up the boost. but i still have the stock front exahust cat and piping back to where the second cat was im thinkin about a high flow cat

yes, tune, then boost. remember the six B's to boost with no tune (yes i made this up)

boost (no tune), break, blow, buy, build, boost
