RE: Boost gauge failure or am i chipped?
Go to Autozone. All they will do is give you the code, then you come on here and post it. We will tell you what to check.
The spot you plugged it in is fine, it should read 20hg when idle, so right there you are having an issue. Does your guage read 0 when you turn off the car?

You gauge should not be CONNECTED TO front line by grill. It will read 10-14 for vac pressure
It has to be connect to closest one by windshield. Will read 19-21 for vac pressure

You can get your car scanned, but its likely that you have hooked it up wrong. Youll have to get hooked up to a scanner to reset the cel anyway though. You can buy a scanner that reads and clears codes for $70 or less on ebay. But with vag com (can get it at www.ross-tech.com ) you can do a lot more.

Well if you guage reads 2-3 when the car is off, then your guage is screwed up and isn't accurate. Some guages have the ability to be reset, others do not.
If you got it second hand, you are probably SOL. If you bought it new, call the place you got it from and let them know.
