Default Vacuum reading when idle

i just installed my turbokit and i have a apexi boost gauge http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...sting. this is the gauge.
i was wondering since this is bar what is the correct reading so i kno i dont have a vacuum leak. i was just wondering what the reading should be when im idling on that gauge
