The concern with running pump gas and high boost is engine knock. As you may already know, E85 has a functional equivalent octane level to 109 fuel. This is protecting your engine from detonation.
Thanks, I guess I was confusing iats with cylinder temps. I get where you're coming from. I guess I made a bad comparison there.

If this new mystery blower is as efficient as they say, I wont need to spin it that fast to crack 800whp. Hopefully its not a dog on low boost.
