Default civic turbo wanting to push a bit higher boost

94 civic cx hatch

jdm d16a(d16z6)
t3/t4
external wastegate(with spring)
fmic
rc 550cc injector
walbro 155lph pump
bkr7e(or somthing like that) plugs
chip ecu accordinly to this setup by pharable

current runing 5psi daily driving. i been wanting to raise the boost up just a bit, maybe to 8 or 9psi. i dont know if it's safe on a chip ecu like this. and should i go sfac if i want to push 8-9psi? i'm running pretty rich now i'm guessing cuz when i do boost i waste a **** load of gas and my tailpipe tip is always wet. and i cannot afford to put money into a tune. i can maybe afford crome but there is no crome tuners around where i'm living, only hondata and i cannot afford that right now. thanks.

If you want to boost more, you want to move to a better tuning solution than a generic chip. At the very least, invest in some tuning time with a wideband and Uberdata/Crome. If you have the money, do Hondata or AEM or Neptune.
