Default Dezod Black Box over 16 psi

Has anyone boosted over 16 psi wit this module? The module can be tuned up to 16 psi so this is why i question it's abilities beyond 16. Before i decide to sink money into buying a full standalone, i would like to know if i can boost around 20 psi with this module and the safc-ii, which has been my trusty setup for over two years now. I just dont want to run into an issue of too lean or too rich if i get 20 psi under 4000 rpms which im sure will be possible. Thanks!

IMO the safc is only good for like 7psi unless u have the fuel return and all.....anyways aem fic is my suggestions to you, u can sell the safc on ebay for 190 buy it now i have sold 2 that way and then sell the blakc box and that will cover the fic and tuning

using the balck box u can partial throttle tune with ease, however timing is still left up to the stock ecu. it does a rather good job of retarding timing. and as far as the F/IC, its like wanting a mustang but buying the V6 one, its still a mustang but not everything that it could be. Besides, by May ill have a bonus check, gotta love those

im sorry but the stock ecu doesnt do well with the timing i remember starting to knock around 6.5 psi on a 11.6 afr and at 6psi with 11.8 afr im sure that u where getting detonation and just not hearing it due to either loud exhaust or open dumptube

never had detonation, except for once early when i had to retune it. Other than that, it ran fine for two years, minus the seals in the turbo going out twice. as of three months ago the rings have started to wear down alot after a 14 psi dyno run. It ran pretty reliably.
