Lol on stock internals.. Learn thermodynamic cycles then talk about it.. 10:1 compression pistons from a stock motor with 8-10 lb boost is similar to having like 15lb boost with 8:1 compression pistons.. It's not all about the intake side.. So much shit comes in to account that you can't possibly even begin to sum it up with just the compressor output pressure..
ANY boost on stock internals with stock compression on a engine that was designed for NA is a ticking time bomb, as it was not engineered for that.. It might run "fine" and "safe" but for how long? How long before your hydrodynamic bearings begin to starve? What about your ehd bearings?
There is a reason why factory fi engines have lower comp, stronger rods and a more balanced lighter crank with better surface finishes in places where needed than na ones
