Default How much boost?

My dad just bought a 2007 F250 with the 6.0 in it and the only aftermarket part that is on it is a s and b air intake. and i think it was making around 20lbs when we were going down the express way pulling a snowmobile trailer. What do you guys normally make?

Default Boost

Stock they shouldn't get more than 27-28 psi. Depending on what reflash you have. Anything over 35 psi will pop the headgasket and make her drool.
