Boost numbers

Can someone tell me how much boost a 2007 6.0 should make in stock condition on the factory gauge?

I think around 30 psi is considered the max that should be run. My guage goes to 40 psi but I wouldn't run anything nearly that high. I'm considering a DashDAQ and will probably set the alarm at 28 or 29. Hopefully someone with more turbo knowledge will come by to confirm these numbers.

About 28 is the most I see. It might hit 30 lbs momentarily. Never seen it over the 30 hash mark. It redlines at 35 IIRC.

Depending on your flash 26 is "normal" it will peak higher but in a long pull 26-27 is correct.
