That sounds about right. Stage 2 wont make your car insane but it will give you a noticable safe improvment on both hp and torque. Im only running 15 to 15.5 depending on tempature. Im at sea level also, so it helps. Stock I was running 12 to 12.5.

I'm in ohio... about the same elevation... and mine is the same way. There have been some cold... none humid mights though that it has hit 15 instead of 14 though. It's all about the weather!

your stock boost gauge maybe off by 1 psi, don't worry about it.

only if your stock gauge isn't accurate. If its the elevation as mentioned above it should still read 14 psi
