Default boost gauge

i just installed my new vdo boost gauge. wow that was easyer than i thaught..
the question is, what should it read at idle??
it is showing -20
and is topping out at about 15lbs under full load
it is a 1.8t with a tap1 stage 2 chip, and all the good stuf that goes along with is..
tap said it should be putting out about 12.5lbs...
