Default Need help before I go turbo

I had a home mad turbo on a d16z6 before I sold my car. The the guy ran the oil low and blew it up. So I got the car back really cheap, and I have a mini me in it now, A6 block and a y8 head. I know the compression is like 10.33, and the z6 was around 9. I was using a missing link, fmu , and a walbro 255 in tank pump. The z6 motor was fine for like 4 or 5 months before he blew it.Would it be safe to run 5-6 psi on a t25 with just the pump and fmu on it with the compression that high.

Thanks for the help,
Chris

You can...but ain't noone gonna recommend that you do it with the FMU.

If you want it to last then getting it Tuned is the key to it's survival.

Thats y I want to know is the FMU will work if I don't beat the hell out of it. I don't have the time or hte money right not to get it tuned . Plus the shop here wants 550 to street tune my turbo edit.
