anyone having this problem?

[clutchedout22]

Hey i was wondering if anyone was having problems with the autosport boost gauge? reason being when i drive my car the vaccuum needle is all the way down. i kno a boosted car is supposed to have some vaccuum between 10 and 20. but my gauge reads past 30.its a ko4, small turbo shouldnt be laggy at all when i drive it feels that the turbo is laggy.the first 4 gears my turbo wont boost past 10psi. 5th and 6th im at 14. is this normal? . no cel is on. another thing i notice is when i had my bov on the car, i was racing someone, i shifted into 6th, the bov wouldnt blow off anymore. it just spuddered. i checked all the lines. all the lines are good. any suggestion on what it is? or what i should do? anyone run into the same kind of problem? please help. its started to kind of bother me..

doesn't sound like the boost gauge is the problem.

just a guess, but maybe the hose is kinked somewhere? i would trace the hose back through the firewall and check and make sure its "free flowing."

yeah you might be getting a kink in your hose.
