for the gauge to read psi its prob a mech issue with it.. like stated above there is no residule boost left in the lines..
as far as reading boost at idle it cant be done.. at idle the turbine IS spinning but not making boost' maybe barley 1 psi if that (most likely just 50/50 intake blade to exhaust blade).. without the turbo the motor wouldnt run idle correctly..
.. if you check boost while in park and just reving the engine.. youll probably only see maybe 5-7psi with a stock truck.. and maybe 10-13psi on a 'chipped'.. it will be about half the amount you see while driving.. Just a little info.. hope that helps..
.. and if you gauge is reading 2psi when off.. and when turned on goes to zero its probably fine.. if you turn it on and stays at 2 but the rest of the reading seem acurate i would just take 2psi off of what you think your making..
