Default Low Boost?

I recently got the GIAC X program installed on my car with an AWE S-Flo. Ever since i got it chipped and the S-flo i have been running low boost in stock mode and in chipped mode. In stock mode i am running like 6-7lbs of boost and i remember that i was running 8-10lbs of boost before the chip in stock mode. When i put it in the chipped mode i spike at 20 lbs but it only holds at like 13 or 14 lbs. I thought that with the chip it was supposed to hold from 16-18 lbs of boost. By the way i have a 2001.5 S4. There are no lights on, on my dash so i was wondering if this is the boost that im supposed to be running or if its low, and if its low what are the reasons that it would be running low boost.
Thanks for the info in advance

check for boost leaks. It sounds like you might possibly have a boost leak.
