I would get it tuned with a wideband O2 before you go any further. Yeah, I'm sure some people might have had success with higher PSI, but get it tuned and see what your A/F is at. If it's excessively rich, try another PSI or two.

He means when you go get your car dynoed and tune you have a option of having a wideband o2 senor that reads very accurately of your air/fuel ratio, it reads a lot more accurateley of your air/fuel then your gauge does.
