Pulsating boost gauge

odd one here; I have an after market auto master sport comp boost gauge, at idle when my heater or AC is on my boost gauge pulsates between -15-20 I've checked all of my piping and done a boost leak test and nothing , something I should be concerned about or no?

It's in your tune. I'm going to assume the rpm doesn't change enough to notice on the tack, but through hptuners or with a aeroforce you'll see the rpms vary from 750-850.

Contact your tuner and get them to fix you high load idle.
