What are your current mods? What tune are you running and what are you putting down now? Are you running an intercooler? You need to answer these questions before people can help you. If your motor is stock? Leave it lol.

15-18 pounds will almost certainly break the engine if you still have the stock rods and pistons.

You'd also most likely need fairly extensive upgrades to the fuel system to support the sort of air flow associated with 18 pounds of the boost.

Like slayer sez, you need to tell us what mods the car has now in order to offer intelligent suggestions as to how to meet your goal.

if you have the S-trim blower.. i doubt that will make it to 15-18 pounds.

It will give 15 lbs but like said above if you are running a S trim it will be running out of breath. You would most likely see more gains from forging your rotation assembly and getting new heads/cams.... then thinking about turning up the pressure.
