Just make sure you have the fuel and you can run alot. Upwards to 15# or more. You have to have enoough fuel, good tuning, and low timing, with high octane and that is the trick to HP, high compression with alot of boost, Tricky setup but if done right it is alot of HP!

Is this a street car? 10:1 is a lot for a blown street car, you will have to keep a pretty safe tune on it. If it is a strip only car you will be alright.

I would stay around 10psi for a street driven car. Just make sure you keep a good tune.
