The high boost pulley does provide a little more down low and in the midrange, but I was wary of how much power it puts out up top. It's all about how much torque the motor is putting out. So if you can reduce the peak cylinder pressures and torque via reduced ignition advance or cam timing, 12 psi can be safe up top as well.
It's not quite that simple...
