Before adding boost I would check with dealer on what effect this will have on the 100K engine warranty.

A stock 6.0 will turn 26-27PSI. Some tuners push the boost beyond 30PSI. If you're planning on staying stock, 0-30 should be fine.

2004-

I'd be concerned if you're making 31psi bone stock. How are you measuring, with a real gauge or the factory gauge on the cluster? 31psi should be considered overboosting for a truck in stock trim.

I have installed a Bully-Dog Monitor on my 04. It can monitor 4 different items at the sametime with a choice of many. Only the 2 EGT's have any installation work other than plug in. I choose the 2 EGT's, boost , & volts which was taken away for the factory trans temp guage. Most of the time the boost is under 10, & under 25 pulling #7000 conservatively...I've seen 30 on the guage once...Good luck
