Boost controller not showing boost, only vacuum

Hey everyone my boost guage is acting weird now...
It reads vacuum fine and my car is boosting fine, bov and turbo working perfectly fine, however, when im in boost my boost guage is showing 0 or some vacuum and other times the boost guage actually shows boost under hard acceleration, SOMETIMES... its getting me paranoid lol

Mine did the same ting it was a leak. I had the plastic tubing pushed into black rubber hose and it was enought to show vacuum and not boost.
