Default Boost Question

Can someone please tell me how much boost I should have on my stock turbo. I have 27 to 28 at WOT. Not sure if I have a problem or not. Any help would be appreciated.

yeah 30 should be no problem on a stock turbo. Do a Slap Shot on that power puck and get a Smarty. With a boost fooler 40+ is possible with the stock turbo even though it's only pushing hot air it's doable!
