I run nearly 15psi through mine on the Challenger, but admittedly it's used for drag racing and romping around on the streets as the Challenger isn't the right tool for a road course. At almost 15psi the Magnuson is maxed out on my forged 9:1 compression 6.0L motor, so keep that in mind if you have dreams of a built 427 in your future.
I'm surprised that you can run 15 psi on that rotor pack. I understand that boost pressure is not the same as volumetric capacity, but I suspect that it's on the ragged edge of the compressor map. From your, (and JDP's) viewpoint is there any room left on the 2.3L TVS beyound 15 psi?

Edit: Ok, see where you stated that you're maxed out a 9:1, but impressive that you can get there on a 6.0L with the 2.3L. Respect.
