The autometer gauge is the problem most likely. My friend had the same problem with is gauge showing 14 or 15psi. Spend the extra money and get a electronic boost gauge with the peak hold feature.

Go to where you have the boost gauge tapped. check the hose. Mine was a little two large. I would only read .7 BAR no matter what I turned my EBC to.

Finally I got pissed off, turned the EBC up to 75%. POP! Blew an intercooler hose off. That's when I determined the Boost gauges wasn't reading right. I just put a zip tie on it to tighten the vacuum hose down, and now I am good.

HTH,
