I'm also at stock boost on a relatively stock engine (just bolt-ons, emissions deleated and PFC). I have less than $300 in my system and it's pretty low key, using stock WS washer tank (I can PM you a link on another form with pictures if interested). Bought everything and then procrastinated for over a year.
I guess my point is...I understand that "someday" thing, but I wouldn't delay getting it just because your still at stock boost. In the summer I used to see spikes of 10 C or more after rowing hard through the gears getting on the freeway. Now...maybe 2 or 3 C. and that's with it set to come on at 2 psi.

Then I mis-understood you earlier. You should definitely get a kit.
