Default 10psi o.k. for stock b16?

I just got my turbo going on my b16 and it seems the wastegate is set to 10psi. I was planning on running 8psi but if 10psi won't blow up anything I don't see what the problem is. I'm running larger injectors with the v-afc hack and a t-3 turbo on a stock block.

If you have it tuned, it shouldn't be a problem. As long as you dont abused every corner, it should be fine.
