the fuel press reg. is ok, it sees both boost and vacuum, the line to the bov should work too. I had an autometer guage and it wouldn't show boost over 10 psi, had to send it back for a new one. You can check for leaks but if your boost is showing normal numbers then I would think about sending it back to them.

First Pic- you can see I tap the line there.. but not from the post on the Defi gauge install?? So do you think I just have a leak.. or should i tap the other line???
