Hi all I have fitted a gauge in my s3

Need to change the fixings and tidy it a little

What I have noticed is when I am in gear and put the hammer down I get 16-17 psi
If I drop a gear and floor it I get a 21psi spike holding 19psi just wondering if this seems normal?

Is the gauge reading -10 on idle?
