Umm average of 12 to 13. 13 being more of a spike. NEVER hit 15. Is that bad? I know the intercooler is really inefficient and loses around 2 psi thus would explain my 10 at the manifold.

There is no way you are getting 13-14psi by 3800 rpms you must have a serious ported motor or very finely tuned car and you have a stock catback?

Fatman,
I got 10 psi a little earlier then you (similar to boostcrzy) after switching from the h.d. boost controller to a daws device. now the car boosts and holds rock solid (before it began ingesting coolant). that was with a dp, cb, stock cat, intake and stock motor w/stock turbos. i think the h.d. boost controllers don't work well at all. you can get the daws device for about $50.00.

Well Im wondering is 12 to 13 PSI at the turbos bad? Like how long will they last like that? I dont go flooring it every day yet I do like to enjoy the car. Should I get an aftermarket IC, ASAP, because their going to go that fast?

i don't think 12-13 psi at the turbos is a problem. everything i've ever read indicates that problems start when you exceed 12 psi at the manifold which would probably equate to 14-15 psi out of the turbos.
