    I have a 15 Pete 587 with MX13 engine I currently get only around 20 psi of boost that seems pretty low to me so my question is what's a normal amount of boost?

    Whatever the mx13 makes, it makes. Don't screw with it, or you lose reliability. You will hear if the turbo is going bad. Sounds like a kazoo.
