Max Boost For Stock Bottom End 2004 Zo6

My friend has a 2004 zo6 with LG pro headers and borla stinger cat back..It also has a new pro charger on it as well....Right now he has it dialed in @ 7lbs of boost..He dynoed the car and he claims it only put down 447rwhp and 487rwtq...if he goes up a couple of more lbs of boost will his bottem end be ok? Oh yeah, I forgot...he is running stock fuel system and everything else..Any imput is appreciated...

Does he have the thing tuned?? When you say "stock fuel system" do you just mean the lines, pump, and regulator??? What size injectors does he have?? He could probably go to 9# but he has to be really careful with his tune...

He should be fine. I'm at well over 500 RWHP on a stock '99 bottom. Of course he can go with alky injection for insurance but that will run $500 plus installation and tuning. At his current power levels all of the stock components should be fine. Of course that doesn't include tires and a clutch.
