Wastegate setting question

Since I have my downpipe off now would be the time to CORRECTLY set my wastegate on my k04 f21 hybrid turbo on my 2011 r58 jcw. Instead of moving the nut around and feeling like what feels better and rocking with it , what inHG vac should the wastegate fully seat shut..
I believe I once read it should be -6hg ??? I am tuned with full boltons so idk if that effects where it should seat shut ?? I am only running 21psi max rite now...
I bought a vacuum pump test gauge so I can finally correctcorrectly set it because I feel like I just for the life of me can't find the sweet spot..
