Default Boost + XFI Cam?

Would it be a complete waste of time to run about 6 psi from a S Trim on my motor with a Large XFI Cam XFI292 i believe.

My cam's an XFI cam... 230,236; .571,.576; 114

The thing is that if you dont order the XFI cam directly from comp or at least someone who knows whats up, you'll get it on a 112lsa instead of the 114. The cam has to be ordered with the 114 lsa for boost.

Once the Aeromotive Eliminator gets here, we'll be dynoing this thing with the Procharger D1sc maxed out

It wil make power just fine, but it may not be as efficient as a custom cam designed for your setup.
