The gauge reflects what the boost is at the throttle body or where the tap for the gauge is. Thus, if the turbo is boosting 20psi but you're only getting 15 into the manifold, the gauge will show 15. BUT the amm will think it is fueling a motor running at 20psi (actually senses the mass of air going through it by the hot wire method) and thus the motor will be overfueled.
