Ok so right now I boost 21 lbs to be on the safe side. My ? Is can I boost more and still be safe taking in mind all my mods? I would like to do this Still running on 91 octane.what would be the most I can boost !?
 
You deffinately don't want to be running that much boost with only 91 octane especially seeing that you're bored 20 over. With that kind of compression you're taking the chance of having the engine knock. The best thing to do would be to run a higher octane before bumping up the boost, 93 octane would be a minimum.
 
Like others have stated your Chip is tuned for a certain tune/psi..If you go over that you might run into problems..I would invest in a wideband and dsmlink if you want to boost more that 21 psi..
