boost at idle
hi,
what do you guys boost at idle?
My boost gauge used to show -0.6 bar at idle before.
Now it says -0.4 bar. Would that be a vaccum leak cuz my idle really sucks rite now.

RETed gave these as a general idea of what you should look for:
20" to 18" for stock ports
18" to 16" for mild street port
16" to 14" for aggressive street port
14" to 10" for bridge port
20" to 18" for stock ports
18" to 16" for mild street port
16" to 14" for aggressive street port
14" to 10" for bridge port

the stock guage is not very useful, but like hailers said you should get it working. The guage will max out if you are above like 8 psi, and who knows how to read mmhg anyways. Id say get it working, and just use your aftermarket to get readings from. Plus any non-functional guage just irks me.
