If you're forced induction, then it will work but it's going to be close to pushing the envelope. If you have a BFSC of about 0.60 then you'd be running a duty cycle in the high 80's. Which means that I wou;dn't add anything else for power adders that will put a strain on the injectors (wet kit obviously doesn't count.)

Personally, I don't like my duty cycle to get about 85%. If it's N/A then there's definitely a large enough safety margin.
