140k miles boosted running 8 psi, soon to be 10 psi without any problems besides worn rings that were replaced. Consider yourself lucky that you didn't have to replace valves when they hit the pistons. When my head came off, there was minimal carbon buildup considering the mileage. Gotta love Honda quality.
