Either get a premade map for your ECU or take your car to someone who knows what they are doing.
If you want to try it yourself: stay below 1600 on the pyro meter and stay below17psi. Watch and listen to your car. as soon as it acts funny...back it off and turn down the boost.

Well, then just listen to what Chris said 
Those mods and his advice will give you that edge into the 13s and perhaps more than an edge, depending on your driving skill.
Also, don't get greedy when playing with boost. Not just the limit/warning for boost controller, but the gain setting. Both settings too high, while maybe not high enough to cause engine problems or throw an (overboost) CEL, will cause the ECU to pull timing or make you generally sluggish. Start low and work your way up. Don't get greedy.
