If you are only boosting about 6psi on stock internals you should be fine unless your car really wasn't running right to begin with or you just have the habbit of beating your car when you drive it. You hear most people boosting 5 to 7psi for years, but I guess its all on how hard you drive it and how strong your motor is.

Sorry to hear about your motor man!
