This is completely Wrong!!!!
A boost gauge reads BOOST! most are in psi as in pounds per square inch. Unless your boost gauge is broken, if the gauge shows 15 psi, then the pressure source its hooked up to is pressurized to 15psi.

italiano: Stop giving advice, unless you actually know what you are talking about. It's a good thing there are others here to set him straight. How do you even know your car is set to 5 psi, if your gauge reads 20??
