the TSI I got has a boost guage in it but it is not working right. it shows vac. but when I am pulling boost the needle stops at zero. I know nothing about turbo charged cars this is my first one?

I am now on my 2nd boost gauge and this one won't read boost either. I can't find any leaks in the line any were I have got some new hose to install. but the main problem is the engine cutting out under full boost it's getting worst could the fuel pressure regulator be bad and causing both problems or are they not related?
