Default Turbo. Boost won't go past 3

Ok dot know a lot about turbos but I drive my car and it runs fine up until my boost gauge hits 3 pounds than it stops and won't boost anymore and the car stutters and bogs.

Help us out a bit by mentioning things like, model year, engine size, miles on the engine, did the situation start suddenly or was it a gradual slide to the present performance. It helps to narrow down the possibilities. Thanks.

Default Yeah sorry

Sorry first time posting something but it has 150,000 miles on it. 1999 audi a4 1.8L turbo of course. Just started happening I believe just bought it. Didn't really get on it during test drive due to being winter.

Is this an after market turbo or no? Check for leaks/loose hoses?
