It's possible that your stock gauge is inaccurate. It's also possible it could be a close representation of your actual boost? What breathing mods have you done?

As for the topic, no one else wants to chime in here?

personally i would recomend an aftermarket gauge, incase you ever blow a waistgate vac/boost reference line like i did.. I looked down and i was at about 20 psi... and stock gauge pegs at 8 so youd never know it if it ever happened to you.

and i like to adjust boost inside cab with moddified manual air regulator, but thats just how i roll... bleeder valves work pretty good too and way cheap...so will the washers just dont over do it...
