If you don't have a good aftermarket boost gauge, get one. The stock one is basically useless.

This is so true. I've never used the stock gauge....ever. What the hell dose the #s on that thing even mean? It's like gib-er-ish to me. Maybe it should have said in the manual that "You must be able to speak DUMB *** befor driving this car"
