You can blow rods at any power level. Its not 100% directly related to PSI or power.

You need to do research, man. In to your states emissions, in to what people are saying. In your specific case with your concerns a supercharger kit sounds like a MUCH better option for what you're trying to do.

Maintain all factory emissions and 02 placement, make reliable power, have a decent powerband. It all adds up.

Look at @CounterSpace Garage and their greddy equipped car. Just another example. Tap in to the resources around you and take off the blinders, lol. If it's what you really want and it meets your needs, great!! It just sounds like you're rushing in to a decision without due diligence.
