Ok heres the deal. I've had my KB for like 8 months now, and FINALLY just installed a boost gauge. (retarded I know) Anyways, my question is, do all of your guys gauge stay like at 20psi vacuum while idling and normal driving? Mine does. I mean when I floor it, it goes all the way up to 10psi boost by 3,500rpm, so I know that part is correct. I was just wondering if it is normal to be reading vacuum while not in the boost. I guess I just figured that it would be around 0. Thanks!

That is normal, just because the car is supercharged it still sees vac when your not in boost because the motor is drawing in the air (vac) not being force fed (boost).
