Boost question.

I have an 05 CC FX4 and I am getting up to 28.5 boost according to my scanguage2 on heavy acceleration. To me this seems high but not sure. It wont hardly build much on take off unless you give it a fair amount of peddle. If you just lightly press the accelerator to take off it takes forever to get going but I guess that is right since not as much exhaust is being dumped through it. Truck will pin you to the seat if you lay into it and has no trouble with "passing gear". I still have my cat but am running a 4" flopro exhaust with what I think is a 5 or 6" tip along with a Banks intake(all was done before I got it and have heard not to run aftermarket cai but dont have stock one). Just wondering if the boost is within specs. Thanks.
