Keep in mind it's called FORCED induction for a reason. Boosting at a higher PSI will cause more stress on the car, but it will hardly blow up your turbo(s). There's no way that more boost will prolong the life of a turbo, but there is no guarantee it will kill or shorten the mileage you're able to get out of it.

If a higher boost doesn't hurt my engine or Turbo and gets better gas mileage then my Audi would have come from Germany like this, to me turbos die from being used, and now its being abused I can't see this being good for my car but at the same time I don't think its to harsh, ill leave a post for whenever it blows, if it even does. Next on my list is APRs carbinio carbon fiber cold air intake that will look sweet under the Hood!
