I'd try supporting mods before upping boost.

What else is done to your truck?

10 psi is fine and fun,

What does your fuel system consist of?? This will determine how much boost you can run.

You will also wanna consider a Speed density tune as your MAF will def. be maxxed out.

Get those damn headers on your truck and stop asking about it...

After the headers are on take a look at your boost level and come back to us. We will help you pick a pulley to get boost to where you want it. headers, 10 PSI, and a retune and that will feel like a completely different beast... hands down.

Yep...what he said after the other guy said it. If you're wanting more go, you need LT's before you do anything else. It's really a waste not do it that way. Without LT's, you'll make more boost, more heat, and less HP.
