When I had the stock plate on I pushed the stock plate all the way forward and turned the star wheel up and my egt was only maxing at 10K and psi max was 30, and that's only if I really pushed it so I think your fine.

It'll be fine. I've heard they can leak a tad bit of oil that way, but I haven't had any trouble yet. I have a fuel line that runs right over one of them (where the tamper proof was), so I just leave that one out, and it makes taking the AFC off a really easy process.
