well my question to you is how many miles on the motor ? the stock injectors can hold 5 psi easily. The only reason tis guy had valve float was because he was probably revving it up to redline every time. Be careful with boost spike and but you should be good at 5psi but mileage will play a big factor if you need to replace a head gasket now or later.

You should be good but its almost time to do that head gasket anyway when you do it get new head bolts from arp.
