Stock boost?

Stock boost?
Hey guys,
I have a 91.5 with an auto.
I just installed my boost gauge this evening and took it for a test drive.
I'm seeing:
Almost no boost until I get into second gear.
Second gear tops out ~14-15 psi
Third gear gets up to almost 20 psi....but I have to be floored for that.
I turned my pump up about 1/2 turn (left the collar on), did 90 degrees on the star wheel and turned the pin 90 degrees.
Does that sound normal? For some reason I was expecting ~25...I don't know why that is though...just kind of what I thought.
Any feedback on stock boost levels? I'm not sure on the housing, but since it's early intercooled I want to say it's the large housing (dog).
Anyway, thanks!

With the 21cm housing, and the mods you have done, your boost numbers seem fine.
