OK my vacuum is only -17 -18 at idle after warmup I was told it was suppose to be -20


so my vac is only -17 -18 and my boost gauge reacts very slow moving

LIKE going from vac to boost or just in general when u tap the gas it is slow

doesnt move instantaneious like it should for some reason

so its your gauge.....

but i have tried auto meter gauges too this one i have now is a stewart warner mech gauge

ok well i i unplugged my mech stewart warner boost gauge on my car and ran a single rubber vacuum line from the manifold through the grommet on the firewall and hooked it up to a profession vac/psi gauge that one of my mech's at work let me borrow. and this gaguge says im reading -19 at idle and it is not slow moving at all. you smash the gas and the gauge is instantanious. what u think?? do u thing this would affect my gauge having the plastic line run into a rubber one then have the rubber one go to the manifold?? thats how my stewart warner one was. u think that was the prob? or just bad gauge

mines reads at about -21 at idle when fully warmed

These gauges are not 100% accurate. I've put a stewart warner gauge in my car and it read -18. then in the same car. switching out to the 40 pound boost gauge, it read -20.

I'd take it with a grain of salt.

It could be that your Stewart Warner gauge is a damped gauge, designed to move slowly.
