Default boost read outs?????maybe a problem??

i installed the boost gauge ( which looks awesome by the way)...its a autometer cobalt series.

once i had itin and i was testing i noticed that in going through my gears my boost will peak to 17psi then drop down to about 14 and hold there? im thinking its boost spike? but i dnt have anything done to my motor...anyone know what up?

I'm getting 20-21 psi w/o a boost controller..I don't know how or why, but I am. I'm thinking it has something to do with running no cat and a test pipe instead..but I don't know for sure.
