Default boostin on 168k

My 1994 civic ex has 168k on it...I bought it last november from the original owner with 162k. as far as i know it was never beat on. At the time i got it it was being drivin by the owners 75 year old father. I have pieced together a turbokit around a turbonetics T3. I recently did a compression test and these wer ethe results.

179
175
171
168


Question is will i be able to run about 7psi on this engine safely with the proper tuning?
