06 you can go to 28-29 psi as a general rule, and the headgaskets hold up way better than the early ones...u should be fine there. as far as why the boost peaks at 26, what mods do you have and was a reprogram done on the PCM recently??

thats pretty low milage, and i would wonder if you maybe havnt had the computer learn all the stratagy it takes into account before it makes its final adjustments. that computer is always learning, and just installing the programmer will mess with the memory it already has. Leave it like you plan on having it and drive it, see if the turbo responce and boost readings change, i bet they will as the computer learns stratagy......Marc
