Since you are completely stock.....you should see around 20-22psi. Might be more or less depending on your altitude but it should be roughly around that area.

OHHH and if you get a boost gauge, I'd spend the money and get one that goes to 60psi.......cuz if you are like any of the rest of us, once you start adding some toys you won't want to quit!!! YOU'LL ALWAYS WANT MORE

Yes, definantly go with the 60psi. On my 1st truck, which was a 12v, a got the 35 psi thinking I'd never go over that.....WRONG!!!! I've never looked back since. Once you start with the bombs, it just keeps going and going and going and going!
