Here's what my tuner told me when I asked about how safe 13lbs is.

I dont have any issues with 13psi with an intercooler particularly when extra timing is pulled in the upper rpms to keep it safe. The smaller pulley brings the boost in quicker and makes the midrange stronger. Dont get hung up on a boost number it honestly means little. The final horsepower and how aggressive the tune is and how hard the car is driven is more of what determines how long a motor will last. You have a safe tune that with last for you.

I am not contesting what anyone is saying on the board here. I really just want whats best for my car. It is not a daily driver. I put on under 5,000 miles last year. It's in the garage all winter. Thoughts ?
