      an easy way to understand it

      when at idle the engine is sucking in harder than the turbo is blowing in. therefore theres a vacuum.
      the engine gets to a point where this is even as you change throttle position and the rpm builds. at this point its 0. equal pressure.
      as boost builds the turbo is pushing more air and forces it in. positive on the gauge.

      get another reading too on a different gauge. i dont trust cheap boost gauges.
