boost gauge
 
When not on the gas my boost gauge sits at like -20..then when i am at full throttle it goes up to -10..I am getting the boost..but its reading like that...is my gauge set up wrong or something? I can feel the 10psi boost, its not reading right.

i actually have no idea. I wouldn't think its hooked up wrong...Its not a difficult thing to hook up. My guess would be that your gauge is defective. Go return it and get another. Dont tell them you hooked it up though, or they may not give you a refund. Just say you decided not to use it.
