Due to the higher compression of 10:1 on a GTS, nothing is honestly "safe", especially with the crappy cast pistons. If you decide to do it, I would go no more than 6lbs.

agreed. and that is still pushing it. I've heard of a number of GTS' running 5psi and still scorching pistons. You will be playing with fire.
