What Controls the stock boost gauge?? I am pretty sure it is controled by the cpu?? but gets its info from the mas?? so if that stopped working and the car wont start after hitting a massive bump in the road should i be checking the CPU or the MAS?
 
If the car's not starting after hitting a bump, that's nothing to do with the stock boost gauge not working. But check the plug on the MAS, check the TPS plug, the plug for the coil(s), etc.

The boost guage is just a calculation of the ECU based on a lot of different parameters. And usually it's not that accurate anyway.
 
I mean everything works I got juice and the car cranks it just wont turn over, its like its not getting spark or fuel?

As far as the boost gauge I was just asking because it usually goes to 0 when I put the key in but know it doesn't move, the last time this happened my ECU was bad, but the ECU cant be more than 1-1/2 years old so I'm going to be pissed if its that again?

I'm not really that mechanically inclined but I don't think the belt jumped its only got 15k on it but I will check all that again. I'm just trying to narrow it down where I should be looking, By any chance could it be my fuel pump?
