with good tuning 8psi is a good safe amount but 10psi+ is not unheard of

Don't boost an ITR, just swap your bottom end for a GSR bottom end and some cash.

booste dITRs are of course very nice but people frown on them becaue of the higher compression and the "all motor" ITR thing.

but if you want you could deffinetley run 8psi with a little tuning

and as far as the fmu, ditch it and get a good pump, make good pressure with a pump and not the FMU band-aid
