Is it ok to run 7.7psi on 996 3.4L engine? Now my IMA twin turbo is 6.5lbs and want to try 7.5psi.

I'm having a TPC Supercharger installed on my 07 997S Wednesday. There seems to be more SCs installed on 996s and everybody is happy with them! I suspect this is because most people don't do this until the warranty expires. I have had multiple mechanics warn that doing so is dangerous due to the compression levels in the nines, but I have not read of complaints about engine damage in the forum. Surely if there are problems associated with doing this it would be all over the forums.

Havent given too much thought to a price yet. Problem is the kit wont be complete. I kept the front radiator and the lines running back to the intercooler. So I would be selling the supercharger, brackets, intercooler and injectors. My mechanic still has all my parts at his shop so I need to do a complete inventory. I would be open to any reasnable offers.
