I can't quote any sources, but I've heard boot peaks at 19 psi. around 3K - 3.5K rpms and then gradually declines to 16 psi. at 7K. Can anybody back that up or offer something different?

Stock boost does fall from 19 to around 16 by redline. It seems to hold 19 I believe till around 5K and then it starts to fall.

I probably need to watch my gauge better

Usually the last thing I'm doing at 7km RPM at WOT is staring at my boost gauge. I guess I could have a friend watch it for me.

Download this video from my dyno last weekend. You'll see when it will be on full boost and then will eventually taper off. I have a 3"dp and straight pipe on stock exhaust.
