well if its "scary" I suggest you get a wideband and see if your in the proper ratio...
Talk to DSM Convert he knows > all

I do have the AEM wideband but not installed yet. I actually put a softer spring in my mbc and with a spike of no more than 11 maybe 12 at times I see about 8.5 to 9 lbs in 2nd and 3rd gears and nearly 10 lbs in 4th. It's scary how quick the car is now. I'm worried it's gonna blow cuz it feels so damn fast. What ya'll think. Should I worry with that sort of boosting?
Well maybe this will motivate me to finally install my AEM wideband. I might be going to dyno this week also and that would be a great oppurtunity to check my A/F. Plus one of the tuners there puts his ear up to your motor while on boost to listen for detonation. They will let me know if I'm safe or not. So no one on here is boosting over 10 lbs on stock internals? It's better that way though. I hate seeing boom boom threads.
aem shorty intake
ion fmic
turbo xs manual boost at 12psi 14-15ish spike (stock rods hehe)
corksport turbo back exhaust
aem wideband
mpi tuner tuned by me which sux lol
that sounds perfect. dont really need that wideband installed aslong as you know your afr's. which you can figure all that on the dyno + the detonation man listening for detonation thats cool to.
btw i knwo guys running 15psi stock internals over 100,000k

AEM cold air intake, blow off valve, new vac lines, Unichip, awr motor mounts (front back and side to side) at an amazing...5.5 psi..hope it will change when my unichip is flashed tommorow
I can only suggest leaving that psi at 5.5 untill you have an exhuast and a IC

mods in sig + unichip spiking 14-15lbs and holding 10-11lbs or spiking 10-12lbs and holding right under 9lbs. my unichip boost always varies, even under simililar gear/rpm/load/temp conditions. I always freak when I see the 1bar spike
