Default Test hit carb question

I finally got out over the weekend and did a test hit in my catalina.i video taped all my gauges during the run so i could dissect it later.wasn't totally sure what it was going to do.i had a 7lb spring in the wastegate.timing was conservative at 26,fuel pressure came up with boost as designed.csu carb with 71 jets front,72 rear.dual brpv's and .062 pvcr's front and back.during the run I was hooked up in 2nd and 3rd gear and ran it out to 5000rpm.afr was 11.8-11.9 pulling thru 2nd and 3rd.intake air temp out of turbo got to 175.intake air temp in the intake manifold was 91,so the intercooler was working.my question is if I go up to say 10 or 12lbs boost do i go up in size on my pvcr's or am i thinking wrong?should I jet up one or two and get the afr closer to 11.5?I would like to do some plug check runs.how long should i run new plugs before i do a test hit?
