How much boost should I be getting?

I just installed a boost guage in my FD and it is peaking out at 13 lbs of boost. is this ok for stock turbos?
I have the following mods. HKS cat back, Enfini y-pipe, Greddy elbow and hard pipe kit, PFS stock mount intercooler with the cold air intake, HKS SS BOV. And stock CPU I know I can't do anymore upgrades with the stock CPU. So is 13 lbs about right or it that to high or to low?

THAT'S HIGH FOR A STOCK ECU... I DON'T THINK YOU WANT TO BLOW YOUR MOTOR SO YOU BETTER GET A FUEL COMPUTER OR BETTER YET A PFC
