Ryan-
  Stock probably won't suffice with 7-10 psi.  My son ran the stock unit =
with 5psi on his MkI, but went with a Volvo unit in preparation for =
going up a couple more psi.  And by the way, even 5psi makes a HUGE =
difference.  Do it and you'll find out.

  Well, I think any lower than 7 would be a waste of putting a kit =
together, as power increases would be nominal.  But I don't think 7 lbs. =
of boost is much at all... This is the boost that most Honda =
turbo/supercharger kits usually run at, and they have weak little rods =
and 11.5:1 compressions.
  What I'm concerned with is: can the stock fuel system keep up, or do I =
need to swap with Audi/Volvo/Saab components?

  "only" 7-10psi?
  Possible, but not recommended.
