Icon2 Map pressure question possible intake restriction???

Just had a quick question concerning map pressures.. Looking over my datalogs i notice map pressure is at -3.6 at 3000 rpms wot, -4.0 at 5300, and -4.8 at 7600. Does this mean there is a intake restriction or maybe exhaust or normal? Car runs good and strong just curious about it.

Thanks for the link. I do understand that its not gonna be 0 but was just curious as to why it rises(more vacum) with the raise in rpms. By the way im at 5000ft elevation.

Because its sucking harder with more rpm. Datalog a pull without an intake/filter to rule that out. 5,000ft is pretty high

Generally an increasing intake vacuum reading can show that your Throttle Body is too small.
