that should be good for 15 psi or more all day.
I would prefer 7.0:1 and let the turbo do the work. My talon is a monster since i went that route. you just have to put up with a little extra lag and less low end power, but when that 28psi comes on you better pucker your *** to the seat.

Youll be gettin close to a 13.5:1 boosted compresion ratio by that point, make sure you run 100+ octane
I cant say much , mine figures out to about 14.5:1 @ 28 psi, with 7:1 base.head gaskets dont seem to last very long.
Im sure that thing will run great and hold up well with those rods. Just keep it tuned safely.
sacrafice a little power and run it rich and it'll last forever, lean it out to get that last couple exta horse your shiny pistons will end up looking like this
