congrats on upgrading to a great car hehe

ok stock gauge doesn't read in psi... i would say you are boostin rather well... the first thing i would do tho is buy an aftermarket boost gauge so you know what you are boosting

no i don't think you will take a gsr stock.. we do 15.3 average on the strip bog standard according to reviews
just get a boost gauge and a manual boost controller and wack her up to 10psi and see how you get on

i'm doing 13.5's on the 1/4 with.....
trust airnx filter
3" exhaust from turbo elbow back
550x300x75 intercooler
2 1/2 intercooler hardpipes
to4e ct26 turbo (upgraded compressor wheel)
manual boost controller (used only to get on boost faster... not actually turned up) i run 9psi stock with my setup
exhaust side of the head port matched to the gasket
hks fuel cut defender (type k is needed for the 7mgte)

and questions are never dumb thats how you advance and learn not to blow up your engine
