not if you dont have an upgraded fuel pump. i doubt it could handle 10 psi with those mods and a stock fuel pump.

12 is the absolute limit for the stock fuel systems.

I'm running 11psi on a t4 with an npr front mount but otherwise everything else is stock. I do have an egt gauge which lets me know if i run lean or not. The leanest my car will go is about 1380 F. I say get an egt and first try 8 psi, Then try 10. Right down how lean it went from 8 then to 10. If its not too bad try 12.

I ran 1bar on mine for a week or two and all that happened was a blown motor, so other than that it's ok.

when adding more boost you MUST add more fuel or engine damage WILL result.

making HP have a cost and the cost is fuel. thats just how it is...

btw have any of you ever seen the short video that shows how much fuel a insano pro dragster injects under full throttle? they had a display with a clear cylinger type thing... man it looked like the flood gates opened.
