o.k. what boost should i run my car with my current mods?
here's the following mod:

FpBig28, ported exhaust manifold, ported 02housing, walbro 255fp, greddy evo cat-back, buschur 2.5 downpipe, buschur hi-flow cat-converter, hks ssq BoV, custom UICP, turbo x's boost controller, k&n air filter, magnecor 8.5mm plug wires, iridium plugs, autometer boost guage, air/fuel ratio guage.

Lowest boost i can set it=?
normal(daily driving)=?
highest(@the track)=?

right now i have my boost @between 15-16. what do you guys think?
 
I wouldn't turn it up any more than 15-16, if you're not getting any knock. If you are, turn it down until you don't knock. If you get _no_ knock, turn it up a little bit at a time, until you just start to, and then back off a touch.

Lowest boost you can run = 0 psi
Daily boost = follow above
Racing = don't turn it up any more unless you're using better gas, then follow above steps.
