take a look at the back of the intake manifold..the side farthest from the TB...there will be a vacuum comin off your FPR on your fuel rail...look towards the firewall side of the intake manifold..you'll find a vacuum line there... go out and buy a couple T fittings from your local pet supply store...they will be in the fish tank department(like $1 a piece)the pet store is the best place to buy em cuz they're made of metal instead of cheap plastic like you'll find at pepboys... and they are the perfect size. Just cut the vacuum line in half join the vacuum lines together with the T fitting and attach your boost gauge line to the middle... vwala!!!done...find a hole in your firewall..but first put put a ruber gromet on your boost gauge line and stick it into the firewall hole...ALL DONE.
