Depends, I ran mine at 14 psi on standard engine cooler ect with a open chip, then after I had a full intercooler and exhaust fitted it was setup to run at 22psi, I ran it like that for 4 years (15k) and never had any problems.

I would think on a engine and turbo with high mileage that sort of boost could cause problems.
