Map 5 is the auto learning map. It will adjust target boost between 11 and 16 psi based on mods and other conditions. I run map 5 all the time. I find it pulls harder than map 1. It is perfectly safe. I find that I regularly hit 15 psi when the conditions are right. With map 1 you will top out at 13 psi.
