Finally got around to flushing the radiator and installing the thermostat (a surprisingly easy task) and everything seems to check out. Idlesd the car for a good 15 minutes with A/C on full blast, and temp stayed right at 3 o'clock (and the A/C is now ice cold). Took her out for a spin on the highway doing some full boost runs and one thing is now different. Instead of going to 13.5psi and creeping up to 15, it shoots straight past 15 and spikes to 17 or so on a shift. Sweet 
The only thing that worries me is that a couple of times an orange dash light came on for a split second. Looking in the manual, it's either the service or check engine light. But that may have been cuased by my need for an oil change really really badly.

Did the cooling fan start up with the a/c coming on? It's a two speed fan and the a/c uses the lower speed.
Did the flashing light occur during boost? Maybe it's over boosting? Check for codes and BCS connection.
