Exclamation Safe psi??

So im going to be putting on a 2.6, 60 lbers, and an intense stage 5 tune soon. I know Ill be in the 20psi range max boost, so I was wondering is it safe to run this, or should I turn the boost down with the boost controller I have??

Port out your blower to reduce heat, and make sure you have a dual pass intercooler if you don't already. You should see 19-20psi and that is safe with all the cooling mods and a full exhaust Header and back, no cat.

And don't run Intenses stock tune. Put it on there if you already bought it, but get it retuned for your car. It will make a huge difference in life and death of that car. And lose the boost controller! No need for it, and your car will run like crap as soon as you change your boost level.

I was going to get a CA heat exchanger next. I would like to upgrade my stock exhaust later, if possible, to vibrant 3" cat-back, so I dont know about only running 20 or less psi... Intense is really that bad of a tune?? I just wanted it so I could use the 60 lbers.
