In a road course environment, I would suggest keeping boost at near stock levels because adding more boost to the stock setup produces much more heat. This in turn causes the engine oil temperature to rise significantly. Drag racers don't need to worry but 25 min road course sessions cause much more heat soak. A setup like Janetty's road course E-85 tune is a good one for extra hp and heat mitigation. He keeps the supercharger pulley stock and increases the hp with headers, E-85, tune, & throttle body.
