Boost pressure has nothing to do with needing an ignition upgrade. If you do need an ignition upgrade it means there is something wrong with the stock coil packs, the air/fuel ratio is too rich, you are trying to light off aux injection, or you are significantly above 400HP.

I ran a t04z at 18psi on the stock coils, no dramas. Power level was like 320hp but that's because the motor was sort of blown up lol. I have heard that the trailing coil is one of the fastest recharging coils around and is even better then the FD ones? Alot of guys over here replace the leading with another trailing coil. Unsure about the truth of this. How you hit 300hp on a stock turbo at 10psi amazes me though. My stock turbo topped out at around 230hp on an extend port.
