I'm not sure what it should be reading (please excuse my ignorance).
At idle it reads -0.6
and the most it reads is about 0.9.
Its a HKS gauge and the scale is marked as "x100 kPa", is that the same as bar?
also the needle doesn't sit quite on zero, is that normal?

Thanks
Steve

1 bar = 100 kpa

So your 0.9 x 100 kpa = 0.9 bar
