17lbs of boost...

Ok so i have a 07ss/sc with 2.8, 60s, OTTP can tune, injen intake, vibrant header/dp with cat, and megan catback. Well today I noticed that in 2nd gear at redline it hits about 17lbs of boost(which it has always done)...but then in third around 6400rpm it was a little past 17 and still creeping up. Im pretty sure that it didnt use to do that, I know that there is a chance of a clogged cat, but my vibrant header and dp are only about 2 months old. Also I'm just using the stock boost gauge...so I know that they arent the most accurate. Thanks for the help guys.

you guys know what kind of hp your putting down with this setup? im ordering the OTTP kit next week and i already have a injen CAI and a clear image header and catless dp. also not that it makes much a difference but a dynomax super turbo muffler.

but anyways i was just trying to figure out what to sorta "expect" out of my car as far as hp when its all on
