i posted in tech but was told to also post here, I'm thinking about upping the psi on my vette currently I'm at 8psi and was thinking about going to 10... About my car it's an 02 With 34xxxmi Maggie 112 supercharged 3.1 pulley making 8psi also it has meth injection and a 50 shot of nitrous internal work is hyperpuetic? Pistons, my question is do you think it will be alright providing a safe tune. It's not driven daily just weekend and weather permitted car.

10 PSI and safe tune = Good Not a problem! You'll be looking at around a 40 RWHP gain or so
