Default how much vacuum do you guys read?
just curious, hooked up the vac/boost gauge today, havnt yet got the turbo on but thought i would put on what i could before the install. anyways, its an autometer mechanical gauge. it reads about 20-22 vacuum when at idle. and when in a gear and off the gas while driving, its like 24ish. let me know if thats normal. making sure its working right. btw, taped it on the fpr vacuum source. thanks vernon

19-20 here

seems to read lower if the gauge is cold, once the interior is warmed up it reads normal
