The stock boost gauge doesnt even tell you anything.

Stock boost gauge is worthless. it only tells you that boost is present. What makes you think you're overboosting? only an aftermarket gauge will tell. are you stock?

You wont be able to feel it either because you arent going to get anymore hp out of your stock unit past 14-15 psi anyways (unless you are running stock psi)

If your car is completely stock.... the boost will cut out at 12psi anyways... don't worry about it.
