OP: If it's just spiking, I wouldn't worry much about it. If I reset the ECU, I get 20 psi spikes for a day or so until the ECU learns how to keep it to a little over 18.

20psi on the shelf map is kinda high. My defi gauge hit about 20.75psi a month after my protune, which is probably more like 19.5psi since the defi boost gauges read high.

I just installed my accessport. I got readings of 1.3-1.4 bar. I also have an APS CAI as well as the turbo back exhaust. I will be getting my new turbo this weekend and will be getting tuned so I am not too worried.
