Limp mode? Reset your ecu and check your lines going into the turbo, I had one that had a tear in it on the way to Tahoe one time. I had the same problem, no boost. Mine tore by the plastic tee.

Wait, Confused here. Is your gauge just not reading correctly or is your car not hitting boost and your gauge is reading that youre not getting any boost either?
I'd start by checking any pressured line. ECU reset also. No CELs?

No boost.. Gauge is reading it. There was actually a ground cable under my boost control that was loose.. Tighten it and now seems fine.. But I just drove it around the block since I'm at wrk.. I also reset my ecu...

Okay that plug looked to me like an EGT or o2 sensor plug. the second blue one not sure. You may have all the hoses connected but you may be experiencing a leak because the rubber has gone through, any abnormal whistling noises? I'd also check everything from your filter to turbo for any loose fitting on the couplers. Looked like you slightly boost but maybe a psi or 2. Do you hear your wastegate open any earlier? kinda hard to tell but if thats the case trace that back.

hmm check all your injector plugs, the one near the engine side you held is similar to those
then vacuum leak, exhaust leak before turbo?
