Message	i am chasing down a nasty boost/vacuum leak and i am wondering what does your stock boost gauge read at idle? i have read it should be -20 (which means it should remain steady at -14 on the stock gauge). my car has a problem with stalling at idle and the it reads like -10 at best. PLEASE NO FLAMES ABOUT THE STOCK GAUGE NOT BEING ACCURATE! TIA.

No vacumn leaks - ChrisZTT (Sacto, CA) 09:39:33 10/23/09 I think there was a pun intended (n/m) - na300zx (OH) 10:54:24 10/23/09 LOL... I'm slow today.

(n/m) - ChrisZTT (Sacto, CA) 10:41:30 10/23/09 ~ -10psi, seems plausible, although odd to read in those - Scotts94z32 10:58:58 10/23/09 inches water and millimeters mercury are two very common - Inzane 11:01:49 10/23/09 Absolutely, but certainly more common, around these parts - Scotts94z32 11:28:25 10/23/09 True. Speaking of weird units wrt to the AVC-R, the default - Inzane 11:37:11 10/23/09 Oops, nope that's right. Just looked at my gauge and it's - BigTDogg (MA) 11:13:46 10/23/09 uhhg.. it depends on your altitude. Check with people - d_flore 12:15:32 10/23/09
