Those numbers are excellent for your miliage. Running too lean, and detonation will blow any motor, turbo or not. Being properly tuned is the key here. Improper tuning is what causes most,if not all blown engines when turboed, under 10 psi. Our stock motors are very strong, and should be able to take 10 psi for a while, asssuming its tuned good, and in good health to begin with befor the turbo :)
