How much Vacuum you run at idle?

Just wondering how much vacuum you guys are running on idle?
Bigger turbo give you less vacuum at idle?
I dont think so but..Does exhuast leak affect vacuum?

I have a big street port. So I pull about 10psi of vacuum at a 750 idle, and 17 at 1100rpm idle.

Porting affects idle vacuum.

I have a 91 T2 ...stock engine with basic mods...

Vac at idle is about 17-18...sometimes it varies depending on outside temperature.

I pull -0.5 to -0.6 bar (about -7 to -8psi) vaccuum at a 750 rpm idle. Reman engine with 125psi compression on both rotors.
