I am putting a stage one supercharger from mpi on my 2011 phazer gt and was just wondering if it is ok to run full boost (11 psi) right away or should i turn it down to 5-6 psi until the engine is broke in? I have 32 miles on it now. I was told that anything over 7 psi i would have to run 110 is that ok on a brand new engine or should i wait a bit till i get more miles on? Any info would be appreciated.
 

I would break it in. I would've waited until i got some miles on it until i boosted it. Without a headshim, i would max at 7. I thought MPI wanted you to mix race fuel all the time. There's other guys on here that might have more info than me. Just my opinion
 
In the instructions it says over 7 psi to run 110 and anything under 7 u can run pump gas. I asked the guy when I ordered it if I should wait till it's broke in to install it and they said it won't hurt anything to do it right away. As far as a head shim goes I haven't herd anything about it. Where can I get one? What exactly do they do? This is my first boosted sled so I wanna make sure I do it right the first time.
