i think that its totally possible to hit 15 psi on airbox in cold whether. Since i did my airbox mod i've been seeing slightly higher boost levels, even after i got headers and downpipe without the cat.
I only have a stage 2 kit, airbox mod and header and downpipe. And my gauge is definitely not broken either. Last night i took it out for a run and tested what the boost hit, and the gauge was good and constant at 16.5 psi above 5000rpm and would spike to around 17psi when shifting. It may not all be airbox mod, maybe its the dense cold air since it was 25 degrees out last night, but something is definitely allowing extra boost.

The Proof W/ The Intake Is The Fact That These Companies That Make The 70dollar Intake Buy The Expensive Ones And Model Theres After Those Maybe What A 1/2hp Difference , I Dont Want To Argue, Well See Later Down The Line If I Have To Ill Buy The Injen Or Fujita All In All I Love The Cars I Love Everyones Enthusiasm "cant We All Just Get Along"
$25 for a wash and pix. but this one is my ex G/F's little sister and it was free
This was free also:
It seems to me that when you want the girls to wear less clothes you have to pay.
