16 should be your peak. as the rpms go up the boost should start going down to about 10-12 at about 5800.

a 4 psi drop is way to much. If you set the peak up to 16psi then the most i think it should drop is around 2 psi to around 14.

I just got done installing the BOV and MBC. my car peaks @16 psi then drops down to 13psi if I adjust my BOV (Greddy RS) it will hold the pressure but I am afraid that it might damage the engine or the turbo so I am happy with it. I installed my BOV with recirculation kit and I was wondering if it will do any damage on my car if I didn't recirculate and just blow it out to atmosphere. any opinion. thanks

Well 15 should be the max on that turbo for you. The turbo itself can handle quite the load its your fuel system that can't. If you are running like 15psi you are going too far. I see you are spiking at 16 and steady at 13...that is good. Just don't let it go past 16.
