you'll get away with 16psi on the standard one I'd say, as long as it's been mapped well.  How long the map sensor will last is anyone guess.  Maybe five centuries, maybe five minutes but since that's only 1.5psi over standard then I reckon it'll be reet.

If you plan on increasing boost in the future then yes

You should focus on FLOW, not boost

Well I am using a 5pk belt along with my eaton and i barely ever see any belt slipping! You just have to tighten it and maybe replace it every 3-4 months cause it wears out! That's what I do! and its a 10 minutes job!
