Default Playing with new boost gauge... Can someone tell me what's normal readings (more)

I have a Omori electric boost gauge...
(APR chip 93 oct program, version 5.0)
Here is what I have noticed the following:
Idle -20 lbs
During freeway driving around -12 lbs
I have peaked it at +18 lbs under hard acceleration.
Does not seem to get into the positive areas too much under non-agreesive driving.
I have noticed that I can hear my turbos spooling in the -10 ~ 0 regions (or so I think)
Does this seem normal?

Plus if someone could point me to documentation so I can better understand my boost gauge what I should expect to see from it.. That would be great.
Thanks.

Normal. FYI the units in vacuum are not psi (-20 psi is unpossible) it's mmHg.
