well how many lines are between the visible numbers?

and 15psi sounds about right with your mods, depending on the tune.

Each line is 1.25 psi. 15psi is about right. I have a 2.9" pulley on mine and I get just slightly over 16.

your boost is right on target with 15. The catback exhaust is less restrictive than the stock one. This will create less boost but more hp. Remember: More boost Doesn't necessarily mean more hp.
