Default New AWE boost Guage... -20"Hg of Vac at Idle?

I put my new AWE Guage in today. It took me longer than anticipated, but not too bad. I just wanted to make sure I couldn't see any white/silver in the vent. I would probably recommend a couple verbiage changes to the directions, but all in all, not too bad.

As for a question. I haven't searched yet, but -20" of Vac seems like a lot. Under boost in 1st and 2nd gears, It jumped to about 7psi, and then declined towards redline.

Thoughts?

the decline in boost is normal.
