Are you aggressive or rich?

12PSi is pretty good in a supercharged app. on **** pump gas. Considering your fuel capability, you might try E85. You could run a leaner AFR (as displayed on a WB02) and get some more boost or timing out of it.

135?
Yes you must be making more than 505. My car only trapped 130 with 500whp and it is much lighter than yours. I understand torque would be the reason for your 10.7 but 135 trap?
